The ethanol mandates in the RFS cost taxpayers billions. According to the Congressional Research Service, federal subsidies for ethanol production alone were estimated at $7.8 billion in 2011. This number doesn’t even take into account the extra $600–$900 million diverted to welfare programs due to rising food costs across the country. Americans are overtaxed as it is, and zeroing out the 2014 RVOs would put money back where it belongs—in the pockets of everyday Americans.
