Efforts on the Hill

NPMA staff have continued meeting with key stakeholders on Capitol Hill to discuss our legislative priorities. This week, we met with the House Agriculture Committee majority staff, Senate Agriculture Committee minority staff, the office of Rep. Sanford Bishop (D-GA-02), and the office of Rep. Jim Baird (R-IN-04). During our meetings, we provided staff with background information on our pesticide preemption efforts to-date, and also socialized the importance of including state-level pesticide preemption in the 2023 Farm Bill.
