CropLife America and RISE 2024 Priority Issues
CropLife America and RISE (Responsible Industry for a Sound Environment) are the national trade associations representing the pesticide industry. Our members are the manufacturers, formulators, distributors, and other industry leaders behind products that support our nation’s farms, protect our public health and green spaces, and manage environmental pressures threatening our native ecosystems. While our memberships serve different segments of the industry, we both support the rigorous, science-based regulatory process in place under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA).
Please reach out to Kylie Gregory or Megan Striegel with any questions.

Supporting Innovation Through Agency Funding
Appropriate congressional funding for federal regulatory agencies is necessary to maintain scientific rigor and to meet statutory deadlines for pesticide regulatory decisions. Effective regulation of pesticide products used on farms, homes, and businesses is necessary to maintain tools essential for pest control.

Miscellaneous Tariff Bill
The Miscellaneous Tariff Bill (MTB) supports manufacturers, farmers, consumers, and communities by reducing or eliminating tariffs, on a temporary basis, on products that are not available in the United States.

2024 Farm Bill
Timely passage of the 2024 Farm Bill is critical to the continued success of American agriculture and the protection of our public health and environment. CropLife America and RISE support science- and risk-based policies in the 2024 Farm Bill that foster innovation and technology.
