A U.S. Senator from Iowa says the oil industry is holding up the Environmental Protection Agency in allowing some states to sell E15 year-round.

Republican Chuck Grassley says he’s frustrated the EPA has failed to write E15 regulations as required by the Clean Air Act.

“Whether you have a Republican or Democrat Congress, you tend to have Big Oil infiltrating their ideas into the EPA and getting too much consideration,” he said Tuesday.
