NHRA Champion Meets RPM Act Champion
"Americans all over the country enjoy the hobby of modifying vehicles into racecars," said U.S. Senator Shelley Moore-Capito (R-WV), pictured above at left, Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works. "The bipartisan Recognizing the Protection of Motorsports (RPM) Act would clarify that vehicles to be used solely for competition are not to be treated like the cars that drive on our nation's roads. This legislation would ensure small businesses that help hobbyists who transition vehicles into racecars, which are not driven on the roads, are not unfairly punished or targeted through EPA enforcement. It was a pleasure to welcome champion driver Antron Brown (pictured above at right) today and hear his life's story, which reinforces how the RPM Act would protect the future of motorsports by making clear those who want to pursue their passion can affordably do so without fear of Washington bureaucrats." Ranking Member Capito is amongst the 31 Senate co-sponsors of the RPM Act, fellow federal lawmakers and candidates running for re-election in 2022.
