EU Officials Lobby US On Biodiesel
11.13.07
European Union officials visited with US Senate Agriculture Committee Chairman Tom Harkin and U.S. Trade Representative Susan Schwab to lobby for closing what they say is a tax loophole that allows U.S. biodiesel to be sold for less in Europe.
French Agriculture Minister Michael Barnier also raised the issue with Schwab and House Agriculture Committee Chairman Collin Peterson (D-Minn.) And Sen. Saxby Chambliss (Ga.), the top Republican on the Senate farm panel.
The National Biodiesel Board says the rise in U.S. exports to Europe reflects higher demand for biodiesel in the EU.
