Bayer Seeks Supreme Court Ruling on Roundup Lawsuits
Update: 2025-12-02
Description
Bayers Roundup Cancer Lawsuits: Trump Administration Backs Bayers Supreme Court AppealThe Trump administration has thrown its support behind Bayers request to limit thousands of lawsuits claiming its Roundup weedkiller causes cancer. Bayers shares surged by nearly fifteen percent following the news, potentially saving the company billions in damages. The U.S. Solicitor General argued that federal law about pesticides should prevent these state-level lawsuits, and that manufacturers should not be subject to different state labeling rules. However, lawyers for one plaintiff, John Durnell, have asked the Supreme Court to reject Bayers appeal, arguing that Durnell relied on Bayers advertising and that the companys marketing failed to warn consumers about potential risks. This ongoing legal battle highlights the complex interplay between federal regulations, state laws, and corporate responsibility.
