    As egg prices soar, Trump administration targets California #Proposition12

    In California — where the average price of a dozen eggs has reached almost $9
    — the Department of Agriculture will target the "Prevention of Cruelty to Farm Animals Act"
    (Proposition 12),
    which Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins described as “overly restrictive.”

    The 2018 ballot measure establishes minimum space requirements for egg-laying hens, breeding pigs and calves raised for veal.

    The law bans California businesses from selling eggs from chickens that don’t meet the requirements
    — thus forcing both California farmers and out-of-state suppliers to conform to the law.

    Although in 2021 the law was challenged by the North American Meat Institute
    — which argued that it violated the Commerce Clause of the U.S. Constitution
    — the lawsuit was rejected by U.S. Supreme Court

    “The Supreme Court has upheld California #Proposition12 — the nation’s strongest farm #AnimalWelfare law—and made clear that preventing #AnimalCruelty and protecting public health are core functions of our state governments. […] We won’t stop fighting until the pork industry ends its cruel, reckless practice of confining mother pigs in cages so small they can’t even turn around. It’s astonishing that pork industry leaders would waste so much time and money on fighting this commonsense step to prevent products of relentless, unbearable animal suffering from being sold.”
