Minnesota Bill Limits Tailpipe Emissions More

A bill up for discussion in a Minnesota joint legislative hearing on Monday would reduce tailpipe emissions for vehicles sold in the state. Brooklyn Park lawmaker Melissa Hortman said the bill will be heard Monday afternoon at 3pm. Hortmann said some ethanol producers are concerned that the bill could lower demand for the corn-based fuel. She said the bill would require auto manufacturers to offer more efficient, less polluting cars in four years.
