The Supreme Court ruled Thursday that a California law directing the care of pigs and hogs used for pork does not run afoul of the Constitution, giving the state the green light to control pork sales within its borders.
In its ruling, the court rejected a challenge brought by out-of-state pork farmers. Under California’s Proposition 12, pregnant pigs must be housed within 24 square feet of free space if their pork is sold in the state.
The challengers had argued the law causes economic damage to farmers outside of the state and violates the Constitution’s Commerce Clause, which prevents states from discriminating against out-of-state products. “Companies that choose to sell products in various States must normally comply with the laws of those various States,” Justice Neil M. Gorsuch wrote in the court’s majority opinion.
