The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is empowered by Congress to purchase surplus agricultural crops and other food produced by farmers in the United States. Acting pursuant to a federal statute authorizing such action, the USDA distributed surplus milk, yogurt and bread without charge to public schools located in low-income communities throughout the country. MilkForAll, a dairy product supplier who sold milk to a public school in a low-income area, challenged the USDA in the appropriate federal district court to restrain the USDA from competing with him by giving away the surplus dairy products.
