Asthma Patient Sues NH Over Emissions Pause | Concord News

A New Hampshire woman with asthma is suing the state over its decision to scrap annual car inspections, arguing that air quality has worsened since the program’s suspension—and that her health is suffering as a result. Backed by a company that once supplied emissions testing equipment, she’s demanding the program’s reinstatement and financial compensation. While lawmakers cite advances in vehicle tech and personal freedom, mechanics warn unsafe cars may now roam the roads unchecked. The case echoes a prior lawsuit by the same company, which previously lost in federal court before an appeals court reversed the ruling. With no inspections or enforcement in place, Jonas fears her hard-won air quality progress is slipping away. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
