    Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $37,123 to the Constitutional Accountability Center (CAC). The grant will support CAC’s work on coordinating the amicus strategy to defend California Proposition 12 (2018) — the Farm Animal Confinement Initiative — in the Supreme Court.

    This follows our May 2022 support to the Humane Society of the United States for its Prop 12 legal defense, and falls within our focus area of farm animal welfare.
