Listen and Learn -- The Dormant Commerce Clause
Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! Today, in our "Listen and Learn" series, we're focusing on the Dormant Commerce Clause, also known as the Negative Commerce Clause. We previously discussed the Commerce Clause in episode 108.
In this episode, we discuss:

- When the Dormant Commerce Clause comes into play
- What constitutes an unduly burdensome regulation
- The market participant exception
