Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill creates an exemption from excise tax for certain ethanol blended gasoline purchased for use in farm machinery. If passed, farmers using gasoline with more than 85% ethanol in their agricultural equipment would no longer pay this tax when buying it at a terminal or refinery. They would need to provide an exemption certificate to prove the fuel is for this specific use.
