The Biden administration is planning to allow sales of higher-ethanol gasoline blends throughout the summer months as part of measures to address the increasing fuel costs driven by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

“The president is committed to doing everything he can to address the price increase Americans are facing at the pump,” a senior Biden administration official said during a background press briefing on Monday evening.
