Label laws set an 'impossible scenario for these companies in such a way that limits the rights of consumers,' said Holly Dickson of the Arkansas ACLU.

A number of states have proposed or enacted labeling laws that would prohibit companies from Beyond Meat to Oatly from using words like"burger" and"milk" to describe products. The ACLU and Plant Based Foods Association argue that these laws violate first amendment rights to free speech. Three cases that combat such laws are currently pending in Arkansas, Mississippi, and Missouri.
