The Center for Environment and Welfare launched a new educational campaign urging Congress to stop the far-reaching consequences of California’s Proposition 12. The Center calls it an “overreaching law” that’s driving up U.S. grocery prices.
The “Food Price Fix” campaign has a website, educational video, and a letter-writing initiative asking voters to contact their lawmakers and urge them to pass a federal fix.
“Consumers who have never been in California are paying the price for its overreaching, inflationary law,” said Will Coggin, research director for the CEW. “Legislators must nullify Prop 12 and bring down grocery prices for hard-hit American families.”
The campaign comes at a time when most Americans are worried about affording groceries, with low-income households reporting the most prevalent stress.
Prop 12 banned the sale of most eggs and pork in California, only allowing the sale of specialty, higher-cost products like free-range eggs and pasture-raised pork.
