Statement by the Press Secretary
Last January, President Bush called on Congress to reduce our nation’s
consumption of gasoline by 20 percent in 10 years by modernizing CAFE
standards and greatly expanding the use of alternative fuels. We
congratulate the United States Senate for their effort to address the
challenge of the President’s bold “20 in 10″ initiative. The Senate
energy plan will update CAFE standards and enhance the use of
renewable fuels. By addressing the concerns of the Administration and

it to the President’s desk, he will sign it into law. -
