Members of the U.S. pork industry are waiting to see how a judges rule on Proposition 12.
California voters approved Proposition 12 in November 2018 and it’s slated to come into effect Jan. 1, 2022. The proposition sets standards for pig, chicken and calf housing that farmers must meet to have their pork, eggs, and veal sold in the state of California.
The National Pork Producers Council presented arguments in May for the courts to deem Proposition 12 unconstitutional.
