Pesticide Labeling Uniformity: Ending State-Specific Requirements.
This act aims to standardize pesticide labeling across the United States. It means that labels approved by federal authorities will be the only ones valid, and states will not be able to impose their own, additional requirements. This is intended to ensure consistent product information for farmers and consumers.
Key points
All pesticide labels must comply with uniform federal standards.
States and local authorities cannot impose their own, different, or additional pesticide labeling requirements.
All labeling decisions must align with federal health assessments and carcinogenicity classifications for pesticides.
