U.S. pork producers need a farm bill that protects American farmers from California’s overreach. The National Pork Producers Council represents 60,000-plus real pig farmers in asking for a fix to CA Proposition 12 and the unrealistic patchwork of state laws it sets up—and we’re here to refute claims that don’t match the record on how this one state law has affected food affordability and family farms.
“[PROP 12] is not just affecting California. It’s affecting multitudes of other states, multitudes of other parts of the ag community, including our hog family farms.”
Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins on Prop 12
“If we don’t take this seriously, we’re going to have chaos in the marketplace.”
Former Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack on Prop 12
