Voices from medical research, law, farming, and health advocacy come together for an in-depth and nuanced conversation about the growing debate over pesticide use in American agriculture. Fireside Chat:

  • Joseph A. Ladapo, M.D., Ph.D. — State Surgeon General, Florida and Professor of Medicine, University of Florida
  • Jay W. Richards, Ph.D. — Vice President, Social and Domestic Policy, William E. Simon Senior Research Fellow

Featuring:

  • Meryl Nass, M.D. — Physician Researcher
  • Pedram Esfandiary — Partner and Trial Attorney, Wisner Baum
  • Rick Clark — Regenerative Fifth Generation Farmer
  • Jennifer Galardi — Senior Policy Analyst, DeVos Center for Human Flourishing
  • Miles Pollard — Policy Analyst, Economic Policy, Center for Data Analysis

Description: ‘Debate over pesticide use in American agriculture has intensified across the country. State-level liability reforms, recent executive action related to phosphorus and glyphosate supply chains, and growing concern among the American public have elevated this issue into a defining policy question. ‘This event will bring together voices from industries, including medical research, law, farming, and health advocacy, for an in-depth and nuanced conversation. They will examine the real tradeoffs at stake: food affordability, farmer viability, public health, supply chain resilience, national security, and scientific transparency. As the national dialogue becomes more polarized, Heritage seeks to convene a disciplined discussion grounded in facts, accountability, and practical paths forward.’
