Governors Write Obama Over Propane Shortage
(AP) – Kansas Governor Sam Brownback and six other governors are writing to President Obama asking for help in addressing the propone shortage and price increases.
They are asking for the administration to help increase propane supplies through "every means of transport."
They encouraged Obama to consider regulatory waivers aimed at increasing supplies and hoped the Small Business Administration would ease loan requirements to help communities respond to the shortage.
The letter also said they wanted to explore actions to improve supply stability in future years.
The letter dated Tuesday was sent through the Midwest Governor's Association.
