The bill amends Wyoming's pesticide registration law to establish uniform labeling and warning requirements for pesticides sold within the state. New subsections (g) through (k) are added to W.S. 35-7-356, which state that the state will align its pesticide registration and renewal processes with the decisions of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This alignment aims to protect the supply chain for critical agricultural products and ensure that health and safety labels on pesticides do not materially differ from those registered with the EPA at the time of sale. Additionally, the bill specifies that these new requirements will take precedence over any common law related to pesticide labels or warnings.

Furthermore, the bill clarifies that the state's authority to regulate the use, distribution, or sale of pesticides remains intact and is not altered by the new labeling requirements. The effective date for this act is set for July 1, 2026.
