Pesticide companies want to stop people from holding
them accountable for health impacts.
Pesticide Corporations Have Been Poisoning
Communities for Years. They Want to Block People from Suing Them For It.

Pesticide corporations don't want you to be able to
sue them if their products cause you or your family to develop cancer,
Parkinson's disease, or other serious health conditions. In fact, these
corporations — like Monsanto's parent company Bayer as well as Syngenta —
have been pushing U.S. states to pass laws that would shield them from
lawsuits.
It's obvious why they're doing this. Right now,
Bayer (Monsanto) faces approximately 67,000 lawsuits over the deadly health
effects of their products, like glyphosate-based RoundUp. Meanwhile, around
6,000 similar lawsuits have also been filed against Syngenta.
Corporations have already successfully convinced
lawmakers in two U.S. states to grant them "liability shields" so that
residents cannot seek justice. And what they've done in Georgia and North
Dakota, they want to do in the rest of the country. We cannot let that
happen.
Luckily, Senator Corey Booker has introduced new
federal legislation that would "ensure that pesticide manufacturers can be
held responsible for the harm caused by their toxic products." We need this
law in order to protect everyday people from greedy, profit-bloated,
toxin-spewing corporations!
Sign the petition to demand that U.S. lawmakers pass
the Pesticide Injury Accountability Act!
Thank you,

P.S. Pesticide corporations want the unlimited
ability to keep selling their disease-linked products with complete,
unchecked immunity. We can't let them have that. Sign the petition.
