For those that don’t know…
Glyphosate is the most widely used herbicide in the world. It’s sprayed on crops like wheat, oats, corn, and soy — sometimes even right before harvest — which means residues can remain on foods families eat every day.
There have been thousands of lawsuits over the years alleging links between long-term exposure and certain cancers. Recently, legal and legislative shifts have made it harder in some cases to hold manufacturers accountable.
As someone who has walked through cancer, I care deeply about reducing toxic burden, increasing transparency, and protecting families.
And I also want to say this: I am thankful for progress we’ve seen in other areas — conversations around vaccine transparency, the removal of harmful food dyes, and reevaluating outdated food pyramid guidance. Those are wins.
We can acknowledge progress and still push for better.
Health shouldn’t be partisan.
And accountability should never be optional.
