URGENT – YOUR ACTION IS NEEDED

House Bill 2030 goes before the House Ag Subcommittee THIS Wednesday (January 20)!!!

House Bill 2030 was recently introduced. Several provisions of that legislation are very anti industry, including:
(1) Notify, in writing, all residences living within one-half mile before any application of a neonicotinoid product and (2) allow any city, town, or county to enact their own pesticide regulations. The first provision is impossible to achieve. The second is against Virginia law.
