AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would bar the use of federal funds to carry out, run, or enforce a February 18, 2026 executive order on the supply of elemental phosphorus and glyphosate-based herbicides. It would let people harmed by exposure to these products, or their estates or survivors, sue makers, distributors, and sellers in federal court. Courts could award compensatory damages, punitive damages, court orders, and attorney's fees. The bill states that these companies would not be immune from liability under the Defense Production Act or other law, and could not defend themselves by saying they acted under federal orders or contracts. It would apply to claims arising before, on, or after the law takes effect and would not limit state-law claims or pending lawsuits.
