Chemical Waste Management, Inc. v. Hunt
Chemical Waste Management, Inc. v. Hunt is a legal case. It started when Chemical Waste Management filed a lawsuit against the State of Alabama's governor, Jim F. Hunt, because he refused to allow them to dump hazardous waste in the state. The company argued that the governor had violated their constitutional rights because he had discriminated against them by refusing them entry into its state. The state argued that they were trying to protect the public's health and safety by not allowing the company to bring in hazardous waste.
In the end, the court found the state's decision to be legal because the state had the power to make decisions about what goes into its borders. The court also decided that the governor's decision was made in the public's interest, to protect their health and safety, making it constitutional.
