The Open Fuel Standard is a bill introduced to Congress several times that would make it mandatory for all cars sold in the United States that are capable of burning gasoline to also be capable of burning ethanol and methanol.

Ethanol and methanol can be made cheaper than gasoline, and they burn cleaner. It would end oil's fuel monopoly in America.
