UPDATE March 2018:
Bad news: The EU Commissioner for Competition decided to green-light the merger in Europe. Our only hope is now to get the U.S. Department of Justice to block the merger. Please sign the petition to ask the U.S. antitrust regulators to stop the merger from hell.
Bayer and Monsanto filed their merger for approval -- and US regulators could approve it by early 2018.
With your help, we can convince US regulators to stop this merger.
If they succeed, we are facing a nightmare scenario: more bee-killing neonics in our fields, more toxic glyphosate on our plates, and more corporate control over our food supply.
Regulators can still stop this merger, but they’re already getting hammered by corporate lobbyists pressuring them to back off.
That's why we need to move fast -- antitrust regulators have a limited amount of time to take action, and the clock is already ticking.
