Iowans come together to support the RFS, poll shows

WASHINGTON, March 2, 2016 - Iowans are strongly in favor of the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS), according to a recent poll conducted by the Des Moines Register.

Seventy-one percent of Iowans polled said they favor the RFS. And while there are deep divides along party lines on other issues, the poll shows Republicans, Democrats and Independents closely aligned on approval of the RFS mandate, at 66 percent, 76 percent and 71 percent, respectively. Iowans who identify as Tea Party supporters were 64 percent in favor.

GOP Presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz, who hails from Texas, won the Iowa caucuses in February despite campaigning against the Renewable Fuel Standard.
