Pesticide seller or manufacturer; provide limited immunity for in certain actions.

SB 2472 would shield pesticide manufacturers and sellers from civil lawsuits related to product labeling, including failure-to-warn claims, if the pesticide had an EPA-approved label under federal law (FIFRA) at the time of sale. It specifically applies to pesticides registered both with Mississippi’s commissioner and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The bill provides limited immunity only for labeling issues, not other product defects or safety concerns. This change would directly affect manufacturers, sellers, and potentially consumers who might otherwise file lawsuits over labeling. The bill died in committee and was not enacted.
