Congress can help ease food prices

From the Dallas Morning News Editorial page today. "We're all for developing alternative energy sources for conservation, environmental and national security reasons, and biofuels have an important role to play. But corn-based ethanol is playing a less significant role than expected on the environmental front and has become a major driver in escalating food prices.
Easing the ethanol requirement could ease family budgets. Congress needs to act now."
