R-CALF USA is back in court to challenge the mandatory beef checkoff program. The U.S. District Court of Montana dismissed a case that challenged the constitutionality of the beef research and promotion program. In the original litigation, USDA entered into a memorandum of understanding with 15 state beef councils. R-CALF, through attorneys at Public Justice, claims the MOUs are illegal because USDA failed to take public comment.
