“Working with other Midwestern governors, I called on both the Biden and Trump administrations to lower the cost of gas by allowing higher ethanol blends like E15 year round. And I fought hard to get a $51 million federal grant for IFAB, the Illinois Fermentation and agricultural biomanufacturing tech hub. And that is, not only did we get that grant, but we're also bringing with it $680 million of external investment in Illinois. Good for Illinois agriculture.” (07:25–07:35)
