In 1995, Bush signed legislation killing a tailpipe-emissions testing program designed to bring four regions into attainment with the Clean Air Act. The legislation cost the state $160 million in damages and legal fees when the company that was to conduct the testing sued for breach of contract. Most of the $140 settlement paid to the testing firm came from an environmental clean-up fund. Five years later, Texas has one of the nations' worst smog problems, and the state now has plans to institute a tailpipe testing program similar to the one Bush helped kill in 1995.
