President Donald Trump’s pick to run the Agriculture Department, Brooke Rollins, led an organization that opposed ethanol mandates and farm subsidies, major programs she could influence if confirmed, according to a Reuters review of the group’s policy statements. That background may put Rollins at odds with farm state lawmakers at her nomination hearing on Thursday and revive concerns in the powerful corn and biofuel lobbies about Trump’s mixed record on ethanol during his first term in office. “The hearing is a perfect occasion to renounce the misleading and demonstrably false statements made about ethanol by some of her colleagues more than a decade ago,” said Geoff Cooper, president and CEO of the Renewable Fuels Association, an ethanol trade group. Rollins was president and CEO of the Texas Public Policy Foundation from 2003 to 2018, during which time the oil industry-backed nonprofit argued that government support for ethanol contributed to higher emissions and rising food and fuel prices. The oil industry has seen ethanol as a threat to its share in the gasoline market. It says a federal mandate requiring the biofuel to be blended into the nation’s fuel supply costs it a fortune in compliance costs. “As a way to save the planet, not many policies are worse than government-backed ethanol. It’s bad for the economy, bad for the environment, doesn’t reduce greenhouse gases and has led to rapidly rising food prices,” said one article published by the Texas group in 2012. In 2017, Rollins endorsed Kathleen Hartnett White, the longtime director of the group’s energy program, to serve as Trump’s chair of the White House’s Council on Environmental Quality. The White House later withdrew her nomination after a contentious hearing that included criticism of her ethanol positions from farm state senators. White had supported a 2008 effort by then-Texas Governor Rick Perry to partly waive the ethanol blending program, known as the Renewable Fuel Standard, in the state. The Environmental Protection Agency, which administers the program, denied Perry’s request. During Rollins’ tenure, the group also called for the elimination of farm subsidies in a 2016 report titled The Policymaker’s Guide to Corporate Welfare. The report said offering loan guarantees to farmers to start or expand their operations “introduces distortions into the marketplace.” The USDA issues billions of dollars in direct and guaranteed loans each year to support the domestic farm economy. Rollins, who served as acting director of the White House Domestic Policy Council during Trump’s first term, is set to appear before the Senate Agriculture Committee for her nomination hearing on Thursday. “Brooke Rollins will work to enact the president’s agenda, and you can look to President Trump’s past statements of support for biofuels to understand the administration’s position on this issue,” said Anna Kelly, a spokesperson for the Trump administration transition team. During his 2017-21 term, Trump boosted corn-based ethanol by enabling year-round sales of higher ethanol blends of gasoline, but he also angered the ethanol industry by expanding the use of waivers exempting small refiners from the federal blending requirement. Ethanol trade group Growth Energy said it supported Rollins’ nomination and believed the Trump administration would support the ethanol industry’s priorities. During the Biden administration, Rollins led the America First Policy Institute, a policy organization closely tied to Trump that has expressed skepticism about climate change. More than 400 state and national agriculture groups wrote to Senate Agriculture Committee leaders John Boozman and Amy Klobuchar on January 15 to endorse Rollins. “Her close working relationship with incoming President Trump will ensure that agriculture and rural America have a prominent and influential voice at the table when critical decisions are made in the White House,” the letter said.

COLOMBO, Sri Lanka — Sri Lanka’s foreign minister said on Wednesday that the South Asian island nation had signed an agreement with Chinese state energy giant Sinopec to fast-track a proposed $3.7 billion oil refinery in its southern port city of Hambantota. Sinopec and Sri Lanka will jointly decide the share of refined fuel that will be exported from the facility, Foreign Minister Vijitha Herath told reporters. “This is one of the largest foreign investment projects Sri Lanka has received and we feel it will be important for us,” Herath said. “This refinery has been discussed between the two countries for many years and we are committed to taking it forward. We hope to break ground as soon as possible.” He declined to provide details on the planned capacity of the refinery. A Sinopec representative in China did not respond immediately to a request for comment and its Sri Lanka office did not answer phone calls. Sri Lanka is currently completely dependent on imported oil, which costs the cash-strapped country billions of dollars every year, though it does have some smaller refineries. The country is looking to attract foreign investment to stabilize its economy which crumpled under a severe foreign exchange crisis in 2022. Sri Lanka posted a faster-than-expected rally after securing a $2.9 billion International Monetary Fund (IMF) program in 2023. Sinopec and Sri Lanka will work to resolve land, tax and water issues within a month, Herath said, adding that Colombo expects the refinery to assist the Chinese-built Hambantota Port to function as a hub via bunkering services. Last week, China and Sri Lanka signed 15 cooperation documents, including agreements on economic and technological development, when recently-elected Sri Lankan President Anura Kumara Dissanayake met China’s President Xi Jinping in Beijing. Dissanayake’s visit to debt-ridden Sri Lanka’s largest bilateral lender came after he first traveled to Beijing’s regional rival India. Specifics of the deals signed between Sri Lanka and China were not disclosed at the signing ceremony. Sinopec’s effort to build a refinery in the Indian Ocean island puts it in direct competition with India’s interests in expanding its role as an energy supplier to Sri Lanka. Herath said Sri Lanka is continuing discussions with India on a proposed fuel pipeline between the two countries and is open to refinery proposals from India.
