Republican lawmakers love glyphosate

If you don’t like the results of the research, attack the research.  The World Health Organizations’s cancer research program found that glyphosate, manufactured by Monsanto and the main ingredient in Roundup, likely causes cancer.

Monsanto says that “glyphosate has a long history of safe use.”

Now House Science Committee Chair Lamar Smith (R, Texas)) says the U.S. should cut funding for the World Health Organization.

By the way, if you are still using Roundup, you might consider an alternative.  Weeds and brush won’t kill you.
