John,
So far Bayer (the corporation that merged with Monsanto) has lost three lawsuits against people who were diagnosed with cancer after consistent, repeated exposure to Roundup.1 And more than 13,000 similar lawsuits have been filed.
Roundup is dangerous and threatens people's health — and the EPA should ban it.

Chip in $5 to fight for a ban on Roundup.

It’s been years since the World Health Organization said that glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, was “probably carcinogenic to humans.”2 Yet the EPA has consistently sided with Monsanto and refused to regulate this dangerous chemical.
Now, thousands of people with non-Hodgkins lymphoma are demanding justice through their lawsuits, and we’re committed to fighting to ban Roundup to protect more people from being harmed by Monsanto’s toxic herbicide.

Will you donate $5 to help stop toxic chemicals from threatening people's health?
We’ve been fighting to get rid of Roundup for years. Recently, we worked with allied organizations to collect more than 136,000 petitions demanding that the EPA ban Roundup. And earlier this year, our student chapters in California successfully pressured the UC system to put a temporary, partial ban on glyphosate.3
And we won’t stop.

With your support, we can ban Roundup and protect people from this toxic chemical.
No one should be exposed to unsafe or toxic chemicals, pesticides or herbicides, especially when they’re known to cause cancer. But studies have shown that glyphosate is all around us, in our food, air and water.4 The only way to stop this threat is to get rid of it entirely.
We’ll keep fighting to ban Roundup.
