in reply to Bich Nguyen • • •That description doesn't accurately capture what's going on in this case.
Federal law prevented Monsanto from including the warning on its label, but a state tried to preempt DC by requiring it, and that despite scientific consensus.
This isn't so much about shielding Monsanto from liability as it is about keeping states from undermining the EPA.
