[Nobbc] SMOG CHECKS FOR CARS 15+ BEING PROPOSED!!

[gtwincams]

Those of you attending the last drive may have heard our discussion 
about a move to make all cars 15 years and older pass smog. Well, this 
was not just a "what-if", as you will see from this email from Moss Motors.

*Immediate Action Needed!*
*Committee Hearing set for August 28. Call Now!!!*

In an effort to avoid public scrutiny, California Assemblyman Dave Jones 
(Assemblymember.jones at assembly.ca.gov 
<mailto:Assemblymember.jones at assembly.ca.gov>) has amended a completely 
unrelated bill with language to require annual Smog check inspections 
for vehicles 15-years old and older. This represents an obvious attempt 
to sneak through legislation in the closing days of the legislative 
session that had been previously defeated (A.B. 616). *The new bill is 
designated as A.B. 3053.*

While pre-1976 motor vehicles would remain exempt under existing 
California law, this proposal ignores the fact that vehicles 15-years 
old and older still constitute a small portion of the overall vehicle 
population and are a poor source from which to look for emissions 
reduction.  Furthermore, the bill would direct that the funds generated 
through annual inspection fees be used to scrap older cars. This 
represents another attempt by California legislators and regulators to 
scapegoat older cars.

This is the type of activity that fuels distrust in public 
officials. SEMA caught this lawmaker's underhanded attempt to circumvent 
public process and is now calling on you to help defeat A.B 3053 before 
it's too late.

*Time is of the Essence!  We Urge You to Call the California Senate 
Appropriations Committee (List Below) Immediately to Oppose A.B. 3053*
