On October 11, the National Pork Producers Council (NPPC) and American Farm Bureau Federation presented oral arguments on NPPC v. Ross before the U.S. Supreme Court challenging the constitutionality of California Proposition 12.

The case could go back to a lower court for further review. Written draft opinions are not expected until mid to late February 2023.

Background:

California’s Proposition 12 bans the sale of pork in the state from hogs born to sows that weren’t raised according to the state’s production standards, regardless of where these animals were raised. Nearly all pork currently produced in the United States fails to meet California’s standards. California represents about 15% of the U.S. pork market.
