The U.S. Supreme Court will not review California’s Proposition 12, which establishes state animal housing standards. The North American Meat Institute sought the action in the Supreme Court and said it was disappointed its petition was denied. Prop 12 bans the confinement of egg-laying chickens, sows and veal calves. It also forbids the sale in California of eggs, pork and veal from facilities that confine animals without enough space.
