Dairy Commission Debate Divides Texas Voters On Milk Price Regulation
Texas voters will decide May 4 whether to create a Texas Dairy Commission to fix and regulate milk prices. The issue stems from the 1967 legislature. supporters cite price stability and consumer protections, while opponents allege market distortion and benefit to large chains and out-of-state dairies. The ballot is nonbinding but seen as influence for 1969. petitions with 13,000 signatures backed the referendum, and a Texas Association for the Prevention of Retail Milk Price Fixing formed to oppose the plan.
