This case involves a Louisiana law from 1869 that requires equal treatment for all people traveling on public transportation used for interstate commerce, without any discrimination based on race or color. The lower courts interpreted this law as applying to interstate commerce only, and not internal commerce. The Supreme Court is analyzing whether this law violates the power of Congress to regulate interstate commerce.
