HR 5196 United States House · 119th Congress

Protect Our Farmers and Families Act of 2025

This bill bans the pesticide diquat by requiring the EPA to cancel all its registrations, prohibit sales of existing stock, and revoke food residue allowances. It directly affects farmers who use diquat for crop management and food producers who must comply with new residue limits. Key mechanisms include the EPA permanently removing diquat from the market under existing federal law, with no future reregistration allowed. The bill implements these changes immediately upon enactment, targeting environmental and food safety concerns tied to diquat use.
