Leaders of the Make America Healthy Again movement are revolting after a Supreme Court ruling shut down thousands of lawsuits over a widely used weedkiller.
In a 7-2 decision, the conservative majority on the court ruled in favor of Monsanto, which produces the herbicide Roundup—a major blow to plaintiffs who allege the product caused cancer and are seeking millions in damages. The two dissenters were liberal Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson and conservative Justice Neil M. Gorsuch.
Writing for the majority, Trump-appointed Justice Brett Kavanaugh argued that Monsanto could not be held liable because federal regulators approved the product’s labeling. He then cited the Environmental Protection Agency’s conclusion that glyphosate is unlikely to pose a cancer risk to humans who follow the label’s instructions.
