CLA and RISE Joint Statement: H.R.7266
CropLife America (CLA) and RISE (Responsible Industry for a Sound Environment) support uniform, science-based, and predictable pesticide regulation conducted by scientists with years of expertise at the federal and state levels and appreciate continued support of these principles. The regulatory framework for pesticides – under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act and relevant state legislation across the country – is essential to supporting innovation and the safe use of pesticides in agricultural, public health, residential, commercial, recreational, and infrastructure settings on public and private property.
More Than 350 Organizations Voice Support for Existing Pesticide Law
WASHINGTON, D.C. - CropLife America (CLA) joined more than 350 organizations engaged with pesticide products in a letter sent to members of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives that affirms these organization’s support the pesticide regulatory system in place today under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). The letter is in response to recently introduced legislation (S. 3283) that would undermine the science-based standards contained within our nation’s pesticide law. This is the second time these organizations have reached out to Congress to voice concern over similar proposed legislation.
CLA and RISE Joint Statement: S. 3283
Pesticides play an important role in protecting public health, improving the sustainability of our food supply, and mitigating climate change. The Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act is the global gold standard in the regulation of pesticides because it establishes a rigorous scientific foundation to balance the risks and benefits of every pesticide on the market today. Legislation seeking to ban individual chemistries and politicize the regulatory process undermines both the work of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s career scientists and a long-standing law that serves our nation well.
