Grows rural economies: Supports new markets for American-grown renewable fuels

Davids pointed to Farm Bill support for new markets for renewable fuels made from American-grown crops.

The article says Rep. Sharice Davids co-introduced the Securing America's Fuels (SAF) Act, which would reinstate a bonus credit for sustainable aviation fuel producers and extend the clean fuel production tax credit (45Z) through 2033; it also quotes Davids saying the investment is good for Kansas farmers, communities, and the economy.

This is a concrete legislative move to expand markets for renewable fuel feedstocks, especially SAF tied to American agriculture, but it is an introduction rather than enacted policy.

The House Clerk recorded Roll Call 420 on H.R. 5376 as passed, 220-207. The member list shows "Davids (KS) Democratic Kansas KS Yea."

Davids voted yes on the Inflation Reduction Act legislative vehicle. That vote is an official act supporting the enacted law that created and expanded renewable fuel market incentives.

Congress.gov lists H.R. 5376 as a law and states: "Latest Action: 08/16/2022 Became Public Law No: 117-169."

The bill Davids supported became law in August 2022, so her vote was not merely symbolic or a failed attempt.

Public Law 117-169 created Sec. 40B, a "Sustainable Aviation Fuel Credit," equal to $1.25 per gallon plus up to $0.50 more, for qualifying SAF mixtures produced in the United States and used in aircraft.

The enacted law directly created a U.S. sustainable aviation fuel tax credit, supporting a new market for renewable fuels produced from eligible non-petroleum feedstocks.

Public Law 117-169 added Sec. 45Z, the "Clean Fuel Production Credit," including special rates for sustainable aviation fuel and a rule that eligible fuel must be produced in the United States.

The law also established a broader clean fuel production credit for U.S.-produced transportation fuel, including SAF, strengthening market support beyond the temporary 40B credit.

Treasury said IRA SAF guidance would help "develop new markets for sustainable aviation fuel that use home grown agricultural crops" and described eligibility for corn ethanol-to-jet and soybean-to-jet feedstocks under the 40B credit pilot.

Federal implementation of the IRA credits tied the law to home-grown agricultural feedstocks, including corn ethanol and soybeans, matching the promise's focus on American-grown renewable fuels and new markets.

The Wall Street Journal reported that Davids introduced the bipartisan Securing America's Fuels Act with Reps. Tracey Mann, Mike Flood, and Troy Carter to strengthen SAF incentives and extend the 45Z clean fuel production tax credit through 2033.

This is later concrete support for expanding renewable fuel markets, especially SAF tied to agriculture, though the reporting describes a bill introduction rather than enactment.
