House Votes to End Car Dealer Requirement To Certify Vehicles Meet Emissions Standards

摘要

The House passed a bill Jan. 8 to end a requirement that auto dealers certify that new vehicles meet pollutant emissions standards, a decades-old Clean Air Act provision widely seen as outdated since automakers already have to ensure that the same cars and trucks are in compliance. The bill (H.R. 724) would strike Section 207(H)(l) of the Clean Air Act, which requires new-car dealers to give buyers written certification proving each vehicle meets the requirements.
