Smog Exemption Alert!


Please cut and paste this into an email, and pass it on to all the car buffs you know,

we've got 1 month to act!


Senate Bill 708 (SB 708)- INTRODUCED FEBRUARY 21, 2003. repeals the current pro-hobbyist exemption for vehicles 30 years and older and replaces it with an exemption for vehicles that are 45 or more model years old commencing January 1, 2005. This means your 30 year old car emission exemption goes to 45 years; Yes, your car will need to be made in 1960 or before to be exempt from smog laws! This bill may be acted upon on March 25, 2003.

This bill was introduced by Senator Dean Flores, who drives a 12 mpg GMC Denali. (Senator Dean Florez is from District 16.) Please write, phone, fax and email your local assemblyman (woman) and State Senator to lodge your protest against this bill; if we do nothing, we all lose! Even though Governor Davis is a worthless toad, include him in your protest . . . after all, he is the person who will sign it into law!

Let's all give 100% effort on opposing SB 708; If not, this will likely pass along party lines just as AB 1493 did in 2002. (AB 1493 Reduced the co2 emissions from automobiles.) See the following article, Dec. 25, 2002 - Christmas for hypocrites --- AB 1493, which details hypocrisy of Senate Democrats who drive gas guzzlers yet voted for AB 1493. Senator Dean Flores of Fresno was the biggest hypocrite driving a 12 mpg GMC Denali.

Don't be rude to Mr. Flores; he has at least signed the Marriage Protection Pledge, which states Marriage is between a man and a woman.
