White House petition launched to reinstate biodiesel tax credit

In Washington, it’s not just petitions to get President Donald Trump to release his tax returns that are open for public vote on the White House website, but also a push to get the $1 biodiesel tax credit reinstated. Whereas the tax return petition has well over 1 million votes, the biodiesel tax credit petition still needs 99,830 signatures by April 23, 2017 to get a response from the White House. The petition was launched by Phillip Harden, manager of Scott Petroleum Corp.’s 20 MMgy biodiesel plant in Greenville, Mississippi, and Biodiesel magazine had an in-depth article on the background, here.
