RFA is Encouraging Its Members to Take
Action on E15!
RFA is asking all fishermen that fish on a boat with an
outboard engine to participate in the Action Alert being circulated by the
National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA). Please read the
alert from NMMA below and take action by clicking the link provided.
ACTION ALERT!!
We need your help TODAY! Let your Senator know that adding more E15 in the marketplace
is unacceptable for the 12 million boats and millions of other off-road
engine equipment in the marketplace.
A
deal is being pushed in the Senate that would overturn a rule on methane
emissions in exchange for the ability to push more E15 into your gas pumps
nationwide. This backroom deal by pro-corn Senators, would put millions of
boaters at risk. We know that E15 is destructive to marine engines and
the 97% of boaters who fill up at gas stations. With more E15 in the fuel
supply, the risk of misfueling your marine equipment increases and the
ability to find ethanol free fuel will diminish. Politicians
should not be gambling on recreational boating and putting
more consumers at risk.
It's
time to tell Congress no more E15, and once and for all, fix
the broken Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS). Let
your Senator and Representative know that boaters and the
boating industry won't stand for more E15 and want the RFS fixed now.
