PCOC’s Legislative Day 2024 event is set for April 8-10, 2024. PCOC’s leadership is excited for this annual event that brings pest management professionals together to advocate with “one voice” on issues important to the pest control industry. It is important that our diverse representative body meet personally with our elected officials and their staff in Sacramento to convey the topics that are important to us. 

Our goal each year is to have members from our industry meet directly with their legislators and discuss important industry issues. This year’s PCOC Legislative Day will focus on legislative efforts to implement the Department of Pesticide Regulation’s (DPR) controversial Sustainable Pest Management (SPM) plan. There are bills introduced this year regarding SPM that if passed by the California State Legislature and signed by Gov. Gavin Newsome would have a devastating effect on our professional pest management industry. Please make every effort you can to attend and bring others. 

As a reminder, The Annual Leg Day Golf Tournament will be Monday, April 8th, the Board of Directors, and Committee meetings will be on Tuesday, April 9th and the Capitol visits will occur on Wednesday, April 10, 2024.
