Our Message to Secretary Clinton
Posted 15 September 2014 in
As Sen. Harkin held his final steak fry with Secretary Clinton headlining, Fuels America ran advertising on a full-page of Sunday’s Des Moines Register and on Iowa radio. The ads thanked Sen. Harkin for his unwavering support of renewable fuels — and updated Secretary Clinton on the overwhelming progress that safer, cleaner renewable fuels have made toward bringing Iowa and America greater energy security and economic prosperity.
Secretary Clinton,
For nearly forty years, the Harkin Steak Fry has been a signature part of Iowa — just like Tom Harkin himself. Senator Harkin’s support has helped make Iowa a world leader in safer, cleaner renewable fuels.
We’re grateful to Senator Harkin for his leadership, and are proud to welcome you to Iowa for the last Harkin Steak Fry. As one great Iowa tradition ends, another is growing.
Since 2007, Iowa has doubled its production of renewable fuels. We now support over seventy three thousand jobs, and produce almost as much fuel for the United States as we import from Iraq. But Big Oil is attacking the Renewable Fuel Standard. They want more Middle East oil and less Iowa ethanol in our gas tanks.
Secretary Clinton, you know firsthand how America’s addiction to Middle East oil threatens our national security.
Iowans need to know if you’ll stand up for the one energy policy that can end that dependence — with Iowa leading the way in the production of safer, cleaner alternatives.
