Tell Congress: DO NOT Overturn Local Pesticide Laws
URGENT action is needed to help stop the spread of toxic pesticides.
Corporations like Bayer's Monsanto are pressuring lawmakers to include language in the 2026 Farm Bill that could OVERTURN all pesticide regulations set by states and local communities, forcing us to adhere to federal regulations only.
This would threaten Maryland's 10 state and numerous local laws that go further than the EPA's regulations for pesticide use – local laws designed to protect vulnerable populations such as schoolchildren and farmworkers, as well as endangered pollinators like bees.
Despite the science linking dangerous pesticides like glyphosate and neonics to life-threatening health conditions like cancer, Bayer's Monsanto and other corporations are determined to throw out all state and local regulations, just to protect their profit margins.
Please take immediate action by contacting your representatives today – it only takes a minute. Let them know we demand they protect our most vulnerable communities and species by keeping local pesticide regulations.
