Health activists are warning Republicans that President Trump's executive order promoting a widely used herbicide could jeopardize their midterm election chances. The order aims to ensure adequate supplies of glyphosate, a pesticide targeted by activists who believe it harms Americans. This move has reportedly angered the Make America Healthy coalition. The White House defended the order, stating it is intended to boost domestic phosphorus production, which has various industrial and defense applications, not to endorse glyphosate itself.
