Bans the pesticide diquat to protect health and the environment.
This bill would immediately ban the pesticide diquat, stopping its use and sale across the country. It aims to protect people and the environment by removing this chemical from agriculture and preventing it from being found in food.
Currently, the pesticide diquat is registered and can be used in agriculture, with certain allowed levels in food. If this bill becomes law, diquat would be immediately banned for all uses, its sale and use would be prohibited, and no amount of it would be allowed in food.
