[DeTomaso] NPC: California Smog Law Fails

[Rod Kunishige]

Calif. Smog Law Failed.
Thanks goes out to everyone of you who took the time to kill the bill that would’ve changed the California smog law to test all vehicles covered today on an annual basis when they are 15 years or older.  
SEMA reported our success.  They alerted us of the sneak attack to push through the law without hearings by rewording a bill created to address court procedure for divorce cases AB3053.  Seems smelly to me.  It passed the Assembly using the same language as last year’s defeated AB616 attempt.  
Your phone calls and emails notified thoughtful Senators of the deceitful move.  They quickly killed it.  Rest assured that this will be a yearly event until all old cars are sent to the scrap yards.
