The National Pest Management Association (NPMA) will host 2024 Legislative Day from March 10-12 in Washington, D.C.

This annual event provides an opportunity to meet with legislators and Capitol Hill staff to share the vital role pest management plays in protecting public health, food and property. Legislative Day enables pest management professionals (PMPs) to present a united front with their peers from across the country to ensure pesticide preemption is passed at a federal level so only state-wide agencies, and not localities can regulate the sale and use of pesticides. PMPs’ efforts will bring forth the change needed to effectively serve customers and communities through the safest and most consistent approach to pest management.

Also during Legislative Day, the NPMA aims to grow its political action committee, PestPAC, which is bipartisan and bicameral. The NPMA said it prides itself on contributing to members of Congress who have a track record of demonstrated support for the pest control industry. Contributions to PestPAC will be given to members of Congress who understand and appreciate what the thousands of PMPs across the country do to support public health and property, the NPMA said.

For more information on the event, visit the NPMA Legislative Day website. Registration for the event is now available.
