NCGA to Democratic Presidential Candidates in Iowa: Prove Ethanol
Support
(1-16-04)
The National Corn
Growers Association (NCGA) is sending a message to the Democratic
presidential hopefuls in an ad to run in the Des Moines Register Monday,
Jan. 19. The half-page ad, which will run statewide in the news section,
calls upon each candidate to prove his support for ethanol.
“You each support
ethanol, right?” reads the headline. “Now’s your
chance to prove it.”
“The Iowa Caucus
represents the ideal time for corn growers to address the candidates
on this issue,” said NCGA President Dee Vaughan. “The
fact remains we still have an energy bill to complete no matter who
is sitting in the Oval Office next year. The time to act on this legislation
is now.”
The ad is co-sponsored
by the Iowa Corn Growers Association.
