AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to cancel the registration of all uses of the pesticide diquat when the law takes effect. It would treat diquat as generally causing unreasonable adverse effects on the environment under federal pesticide law. After cancellation, the EPA would have to revoke any rules that allow diquat or its residues to be present in or on food. The bill would also ban the sale and use of existing stocks of diquat and bar the EPA from registering diquat again.
