NPPC voices support for the Save Our Bacon Act to help counteract the damage done by Prop-12

Pork producers are voicing support for the Save Our Bacon Act, which would ban states from having a say in how other states produce their livestock.
It was filed just after a House Ag Committee hearing on Prop-12.

Holly Cook with the National Pork Producers Council spoke with RFD-TV’s Tammi Arender about last week’s testimony, the goal of the act, and how this will help producers.
