Could your state ban Monsanto's Roundup Weedkiller?
Dear Gail,
If you need reassurance that it's possible to force governments to put human health over corporate
profits, do a news search for "glyphosate."
You'll see news from dozens of countries—Austria, Costa Rica, France and Mexico —taking action on
glyphosate.
States across the U.S. are doing the same.
TAKE ACTION: Make your state the first to ban Monsanto's Roundup weedkiller! 4041.81n

Our Millions Against Monsanto campaign is gaining steam in statehouses across the country.
Could your state be the first to ban Monsanto's Roundup weedkiller?
So far, bills to ban glyphosate have been introduced in five states: California, Hawaii, Massachusetts, New
York and Vermont. (If you live in one of these states, click on the link for more information and to contact
your state lawmakers).
It's high time for state lawmakers to respect the independent science on this toxic chemical, and to honor
the suffering of those who have—or will—get cancer because of exposure to Monsanto's Roundup
herbicide.
TAKE ACTION: Make your state the first to ban Monsanto's Roundup weedkiller!
Thank you!
