At the request of Governor Theodore Kulongoski, the Oregon Speaker of the House has introduced legislation (H.B. 2186) to prohibit the sale and distribution of aftermarket motor vehicle parts if alternatives are available that ?decrease greenhouse gas emissions from motor vehicles.? The bill is primarily focused on aftermarket tires and would authorize the Environmental Quality Commission to implement enforcement regulations, likely based on a rolling resistance calculation.

The lawmakers want to limit our choice of aftermarket parts based solely on their affect on the environment/ or rolling resistance for tires.
