Roundup Weedkiller

Studies show Roundup weed killer, a popular herbicide used at home and commercially, can cause cancer. But many people in Hawai‘i were exposed to its toxic chemicals unknowingly. Its manufacturer, Monsanto, failed to warn the public of the risks of using their products. We are a leader in fighting for people injured by pesticides and herbicides.
