Assessments
evidence-backed verdictsLast reviewed:These are sourced verdicts from fact-checkers or community evidence reviews — not opinions.
Thune has repeatedly acted on this pledge: he introduced the Consumer and Fuel Retailer Choice Act in November 2022 and cosponsored the reintroduced Nationwide Consumer and Fuel Retailer Choice Act of 2023 (S.2707, introduced July 27, 2023, sponsored by Sen. Fischer), which was referred to the Environment and Public Works Committee and did not advance. As of July 2026, permanent year-round E15 legislation still had not passed the Senate; the sale continues to rely on temporary EPA waivers. A genuine sponsored/cosponsored effort that did not become law rates ATTEMPTED.
