Supreme Court ruling blocks thousands of lawsuits against maker of Roundup weedkiller

The Supreme Court ruled 7-2 to block thousands of lawsuits against Bayer, the maker of Roundup weedkiller, citing federal regulations that found a cancer link unlikely. The decision, a victory for Bayer, follows a case involving Missouri resident John Durnell, who was awarded $1.25 million by a jury after developing non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma from Roundup use.
