The global chemical maker Bayer is backing an expanded effort to shield itself from lawsuits alleging its popular weedkiller Roundup causes cancer. Legislation has been introduced in at least eight states so far this year that would shield Bayer from claims that it failed to warn about cancer so long as its labels on the weedkiller follow guidelines from the Environmental Protection Agency. Bayer disputes the cancer claims, and the EPA has said the product is not likely to be carcinogenic to humans when used as directed. But some people rallied in protest of the legislation Monday at the Iowa Capitol.
