US Supreme Court hands win to Monsanto in case related to claims Roundup causes cancer
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 7-2 that state courts cannot hold Monsanto liable for labeling issues in pesticides like Roundup, as federal law preempts such claims. The decision dismissed a $1.25 million verdict awarded to a man who claimed Roundup caused his cancer, with justices citing compliance with EPA regulations. The ruling split the court, with Justice Brett Kavanaugh writing the majority and Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissenting.
