In 2018, as one of the attorneys in a lawsuit against agricultural giant Monsanto for using a probable canced causing pesticide, glyphosate, they were awarded 289 million dollars.
In 2026, the president "issued an executive order late Wednesday aimed at spurring the domestic production of glyphosate."
The Secretary of Health and Human Services defended the president’s executive order spurring the domestic production of the weedkiller glyphosate... the president’s executive order puts America first where it matters most — our defense readiness and our food supply,” he said.
