Supreme Court declines to hear Iowa pork producers’ challenge to California's animal-welfare law
(www.desmoinesregister.com)
Is this heaven? Hell no, it's Iowa.
At issue was a 2018 ballot initiative, Proposition 12, that bans the sale of pork products in California unless the sow from which the butchered pig was born was housed with at least 24 square feet of floor space.
6 foot by 4 foot. That's the minimum the law asks for and Iowa producers are upset by that? If an adult lays down on the ground that can easily take up that much room.
