INTRODUCING: The Pesticide Transparency on Federal Lands Act.
Federal agencies spray pesticides on public land across this country, with no requirement to tell Americans what's actually being used where.
Our bill requires all federal agencies to report pesticide applications on federal land within 5 days. The report includes the exact location, chemical, active ingredient, date, and the purpose of the application. This data is then transmitted to a public database anyone can access. Agencies are additionally tasked with disclosing past pesticide use pre-existing this bill. Any agency failing to meet these requirements will be vulnerable to civil action, carrying penalties of up to $25,000 for extended noncompliance.
MAHA starts with knowing what's around us, in our food, our water, and yes, our federal land. Americans deserve to know about the poison they are being subjected to.
