Bill Summary · SB 2100

Legislative bill overview

SB 2100 is a Hawaii bill relating to pesticides that was recently introduced and is currently in committee review. The bill has been referred to the Agriculture and Environment (AEN) committee and the Consumer Protection and Commerce (CPN) and Ways and Means (WAM) committees, with a public hearing scheduled for February 6, 2026.

Why is this important

Pesticide regulation directly affects Hawaii's agricultural industry, environmental protection, and public health. Hawaii's unique island ecosystem and significant agricultural sector make pesticide policy particularly consequential for both economic and ecological outcomes.

Potential points of contention

  • The bill's specific pesticide restrictions or regulations are not yet detailed in available documents, making it unclear whether it will impose new limitations that burden farmers or strengthen environmental protections
  • Referral to both agricultural/environmental AND fiscal/consumer protection committees suggests potential economic impacts requiring budget scrutiny
  • Hawaii's reliance on agricultural exports and local food production may conflict with stricter pesticide limitations if the bill pursues that direction
