Rollins backs North Carolina, nation’s pork producers in California tiff

(The Center Square) – California, says the leader of the USDA and a North Carolina congressman, has the right to enforce its Proposition 12.

The state line, however, is where that enforcement should end.

In the battle of pork production, U.S. Department of Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins affirmed that position in a congressional hearing this month. This week, U.S. Rep. David Rouzer, R-N.C., reminded Tarheel State farmers of her allegiances.

“North Carolina pork producers have a friend at USDA in Secretary Brooke Rollins,” Rouzer said, expressing gratitude for her push back against Prop 12. “Secretary Rollins is right, California has the right to do what California wants to do, but NC-07 farm families feed the nation, and they deserve fair, science-based regulations, not California mandates.”

Proposition 12 is the colloquial term for the Farm Animal Confinement Initiative. Egg-laying hens, breeding pigs and veal calves have space requirements, and sale of products from the animals is prohibited if not meeting the standard.

Rouzer comes from the 7th Congressional District, the southeastern portion of the state where trips on country roads often mean getting behind a hog truck hauling to the world’s largest pork production facility in the Bladen County crossroads community of Tar Heel. North Carolina’s $111.1 billion agriculture industry includes a No. 3 national ranking in pork production behind Iowa and Minnesota.

California’s market includes about 40 million people and 15% of domestic pork consumption. Compliance with the Golden State’s law can require new construction or retrofits with enormous fiscal impact.

In the Committee on Agriculture, Rollins told panelists, “No one is more of a believer in federalism, the 10th Amendment, and our Founders vision of the state’s rights to be able to be their own laboratories of innovation. When those ideas, those rules and laws begin to impact other states in such a negative way, that is not what our Founders intended.

“The extreme impact of Prop 12, especially on our pork producers – I believe this is a bipartisan question. We may not all agree in this room, but I think most agree even on the Democrat side of the House, that it cannot stand. I stand in full support of your effort.”

Rollins said her department may be able to inject something toward a solution.

“California has a right to do what California wants to do,” she said. “The minute that crosses the border and begins to compromise, in such a significant way, our pork producers we need to act.”

Watch the price of pork in California start to skyrocket. That state deserves all the misery it ask for.

Been fighting against prop 12 for several years now. Truthfully all it is is a way to increase the costs of the producer. Make it more expensive to raise livestock. This is only the first, actually 2nd or third, wave. The actual goal is to make it so difficult and so expensive to raise livestock that you simply can't.

Or maybe not about banning china. But why are so many so quick to sell to commies?

Most probably don't really know who it is being bought by. I'd surmise the ground probably goes to auction and is then bought by an "investor" under a business name. Most likely a shell company. Probably registered in another state.

California wants to be the tail that wags the dog. Producers in other states should tell their wholesalers not to sell to them. Let them starve in their self righteousness

My brother is in the grocery business and he told me that the company he works for (Albertsons / Safeway) has stopped ordering items such as eggs from California and is in the process of moving their warehouses operations in that state to Idaho and Utah. He said the main gripe was the cost of doing business in California, especially on the transportation end such as trucking due to fuel cost amongst a few other reasons. In the meantime they are ordering their eggs from the midwest and having them shipped by train.
