Supreme Court Sides with Monsanto on Pesticide Warning Claims

The U.S. Supreme Court issued a 7-2 ruling favoring Monsanto, now Bayer, regarding its Roundup weedkiller. The decision asserts that federal pesticide regulations override state-level "failure-to-warn" lawsuits if the EPA has not mandated such warnings. This ruling is expected to have substantial implications for numerous ongoing legal cases against the company.
