Gov. Scott Walker’s Changing Ethanol Stance Sign Of Greater Issue For GOP Hopeful



Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin


Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin flip-flop on the issue of ethanol may be just the tip of an iceberg that could affect the chances for the 2016 GOP hopeful.



Autoblog reports several memos linked to the still-unofficial campaigns of the other GOP presidential candidates have noted Walker’s shifts on positions on issues like ethanol, immigration et al. The broad pattern of flip-flopping, as well as his status as an unknown among his state’s voters, means he’ll have a hard go at convincing Republicans that he is their candidate for President of the United States.


On the issue of ethanol, he once denounced the mandate of adding the corn-based variant into gasoline in his 2006 gubernatorial campaign, citing the harm such mandates would impose on “Wisconsin’s working families.” While his team says he still supports that stance, Walker was among those at the 2015 Iowa Ag Summit in Des Moines, Iowa to support the federal renewable fuel standard that allows corn ethanol to be added into gasoline.
