Godawful decision that must be reversed.

Today, the nation’s highest court ruled that agriculture giant Bayer, which owns RoundupTM manufacturer Monsanto, should be granted a liability shield even when individuals can show they were harmed by Bayer’s pesticide products.

Today, the nation’s highest court ruled that agriculture giant Bayer, which owns RoundupTM manufacturer Monsanto, should be granted a liability shield even when individuals can show they were harmed by Bayer’s pesticide products. This decision removes the only effective tool for individuals to hold pesticide companies accountable when they fail to warn consumers of risks for harm that were known, but not disclosed, by the company. As a result, this ruling allows pesticide manufacturers, like Bayer/Monsanto, to withhold information for potential injury or illness from everyone, including the EPA. This will effectively remove the consequences for misrepresenting their products and give them a license to deceive us when it comes to the dangers that come with the use of and exposure to their pesticides.

In a 7-2 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that federal pesticide law preempts state failure-to-warn claims, sharply limiting the ability of people harmed by toxic pesticides to hold manufacturers accountable in court.

Very bad news from the Supreme Court today: Corporate Capture of Supreme Court!

Here’s a summary from Beyond Pesticides of today's Supreme Court’s opinion:

The Supreme Court has delivered its opinion on Monsanto v. Durnell, with a 7-2 opinion in favor of Monsanto. SCOTUS holds that FIFRA expressly preempts Durnell’s claim under state law.

The Supreme Court today issued a ruling that prohibits, under current federal law, the right of those harmed by pesticides to sue manufacturers for their failure to warn consumers of potential hazards on their product labels. The decision effectively shields manufacturers from failure to warn lawsuits.

“The Court’s decision today is a tragic setback for public and environmental health, allowing companies that produce toxic pesticides to evade the most basic of responsibilities, warning consumers that their products may cause cancer and other deadly diseases,” said Jay Feldman, executive director of Beyond Pesticides, a national health and environmental group. “In an age of deregulation, the ability of farmers, farmworkers, and consumers to hold chemical manufacturers accountable for hazard warnings is the keystone to minimum protection of public health, as demand in the market for the safest possible products grows daily,” Mr. Feldman continued.

The Supreme Court case, Monsanto v. Durnell [24-1068], pits the manufacturer of the w**d killer glyphosate, sold as RoundupTM, against a cancer patient with non-Hodgkin Lymphoma who was awarded $1.25 million in 2023 because the product label information provided no warning. The decision will vacate, or undo, billions of dollars in jury verdicts against Monsanto.

And here’s EWG’s statement:

WASHINGTON – In a decision that will reverberate far beyond a single lawsuit, the Supreme Court today handed toxic agricultural chemical makers
