MAHA Victory On Capitol Hill As GOP Agrees To Drop Special Pesticide Protections
The Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement celebrated a legislative win as the House passed a Republican-led amendment to remove special pesticide liability protections from the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026. Representative Anna Paulina Luna's amendment, which eliminated provisions limiting state authority on pesticide labeling, passed with bipartisan support. The move opposes federal preemption of state regulations and challenges liability protections for pesticide manufacturers complying with EPA guidelines.
- ▪Rep. Anna Paulina Luna introduced an amendment to remove pesticide liability protections from the 2026 Farm Bill, which passed 280–142 in the House.
- ▪The amendment specifically eliminates Sections 10205, 10206, and 10207, which would have enforced federal uniformity in pesticide labeling and limited state-level warning requirements.
- ▪MAHA, supported by groups like Turning Point USA and influencer Alex Clark, actively campaigned for the removal of the pesticide immunity provisions.
- ▪Opponents, including House Agriculture Committee Chairman GT Thompson, argued that uniform federal standards prevent a costly patchwork of state regulations.
- ▪Critics claim the removed provisions would have protected companies like Bayer from liability related to products such as glyphosate-based Roundup.
