**A coalition of farm groups and lawmakers is urging Congress to address California\u2019s Proposition 12, saying the state animal-housing law created costly disruptions for pork producers and consumers nationwide. <\/p>\n
The measure requires pork sold in California to meet specific livestock confinement standards, including for farms located outside the state. <\/p>\n
Supporters say the law improves animal welfare, while opponents argue it creates a patchwork of regulations that burdens interstate commerce. <\/p>\n
**Congressional committees are expected to continue hearings and draft language for a new Farm Bill in the coming weeks as pressure builds before current provisions expire.<\/p>\n
Ag groups are pressing lawmakers to strengthen the farm safety net as growers face weak crop prices, elevated borrowing costs and uncertain export demand. <\/p>\n
The next Farm Bill is especially important because many producers are facing narrower profit margins after years of high input costs and shifting markets. <\/p>\n
**The Supreme Court is hearing oral arguments in Durnell v. Monsanto, a case involving allegations that exposure to Roundup caused cancer. <\/p>\n
Missouri plaintiff John Durnell claims that Roundup and its active ingredient, glyphosate, led to his development of non-Hodgkin\u2019s lymphoma. <\/p>\n
He\u2019s asking the Court to uphold a $1.2 million jury award. <\/p>\n
The case is one of thousands filed over the past decade against Monsanto, now owned by Bayer. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"California’s Prop 12 Issues and SCOTUS Hears Roundup Case From the Ag Information Network, I\u2019m Bob Larson with…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":35712,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[124191,1592,16605,111068,3653,7,9,8,4900,1436,3813,124196,124194,1752,3003,480,124192,3622,124193,57121,124198,24747,44224,7084,124195,1011,14034,721,15717,69893,1282,124197,34439,117065,1920,58981,62748,109976,38853,3136,100626],"class_list":["post-291097","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-california","tag-124191","tag-animal","tag-arguments","tag-bayer","tag-bill","tag-california","tag-california-headlines","tag-california-news","tag-cancer","tag-case","tag-cause","tag-coming","tag-committees","tag-congress","tag-consumers","tag-continue","tag-costly","tag-court","tag-disruptions","tag-draft","tag-durnel","tag-farm","tag-groups","tag-hearing","tag-hearings","tag-housing","tag-language","tag-law","tag-lawmakers","tag-monsanto","tag-new","tag-oral","tag-pork","tag-producers","tag-prop","tag-roundup","tag-scotus","tag-supreme","tag-urge","tag-vs","tag-weeks"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/291097","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=291097"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/291097\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/35712"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=291097"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=291097"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=291097"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
