An Opportunity to Boost Aviation Fuel Independence From Foreign Sources – DC Journal
“Today, America is in danger of falling behind global competitors in producing critical sources of sustainable aviation fuels. The administration’s goal is energy independence, yet the aviation industry is in danger of becoming dependent on sustainable fuels from China and Brazil. The nation needs to make progress on sustainable fuels.”
“Trump has made progress on insourcing manufacturing with his push for tariffs on imports. Yet, more needs to be done domestically to support U.S. sources of products and services. With the right policies, Congress can expand sustainable aviation fuel production, consumption and distribution. The administration could take executive action on energy independence by dedicating resources to this issue.” April, 2025
