## Summary

**Creates a private federal right of action against pesticide registrants** for injuries caused by pesticides and reorganizes sections of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act to add this new remedy. - Families and individuals: People whose person or property is harmed by a pesticide could sue a pesticide registrant in federal district court for monetary damages, including compensatory and, at the court's discretion, punitive damages. - Pesticide registrants: Manufacturers and registrants would face federal civil suits and possible punitive awards, but plaintiffs could not recover attorney’s fees or court costs under the federal claim. - States and state-law claims: The bill preserves state-law claims by explicitly saying the new federal cause of action does not preempt state claims, so plaintiffs could pursue both federal and state remedies.
