Federal “Preemption” is just a polite word for a gag order.

As of this morning, the 2026 Farm Bill (H.R. 7567) is moving toward the floor with provisions that strip your local community of the right to set higher safety standards for pesticides. They are attempting to force “Uniform Labeling” meaning if the EPA doesn’t require a warning, your state or town can’t mandate one.

This isn’t about efficiency. It’s about liability protection for a chemical industry that knows its current model is failing.

At Kearney Family Farm, we believe in Local Sovereignty. We don’t need a federal shield because we don’t have anything to hide. We are building the Regenerative Agricultural Training Center to give farmers the biological tools to opt out of this toxic dependency entirely.

When you buy our artisan sourdough, culinary salts and handmade soaps, you aren’t just getting a premium product. You are funding the infrastructure that makes these federal gag orders irrelevant.

Don’t wait for a label. Build a system that doesn’t need a warning.
