Supreme Court Reverses AAA as Unconstitutional
The Supreme Court, in a 9 to 0 ruling led by Chief Justice Hughes, held the Agricultural Adjustment Act unconstitutional as it invaded state powers to regulate farm production. Justice Roberts read the majority opinion. Justices Stone Brandeis and Cardozo dissented. The decision nullifies the AAA and related farm programs, prompting calls in Congress to find alternative funding for farmers and to balance output.
