California lawmakers on July 31 effectively killed A.B. 1603, a bill that would have phased out pesticides containing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The senate failed to advance the bill to a vote before the legislative session ended.

Despite the bill stalling in the senate, advocacy group and bill cosponsor the Environmental Working Group (EWG) says the measure, one of the first of its kind in the country, sets the stage to future state-led efforts to address PFAS in pesticides.
