House panel eases auto pollution standards amid mixed reactions
The House Energy and Commerce Committee approved a major relaxation of tailpipe emission limits by doubling allowable carbon monoxide while keeping nitrogen oxide standards unchanged. Rep. Dingell aims to move the bill to the House floor this week as Waxman fights procedural hurdles and environmentalists oppose the plan. The measure draws support from Republicans and some Democrats but faces opposition from environmental groups and the Reagan administration.
