Establishes buffer zones for pesticide use around elderly health care facilities to protect older adults from toxic pesticide exposure.

The Senior Safe Zone Act aims to safeguard elderly health care facilities from pesticide exposure by establishing buffer zones. Beginning January 1, 2027, restricted use pesticides cannot be applied within one-half mile of these facilities, except for whole structure fumigation and invasive species control. This law seeks to reduce the health risks associated with chronic exposure to pesticides, which can lead to serious conditions such as cancer, Parkinson's disease, and dementia.
