Question:

A Miami-Dade County ordinance required that stevedores (workers who load and unload cargo) working in the Port of Miami have a license. Stevedore permits expired annually, and a county ordinance required each stevedore company each year to reapply and be reassessed, along with any new applicants, as to competency, safety record, financial strength, and need. Historically, the licensing body did not engage in the required review process. Instead, the licenses of current stevedore companies were automatically renewed while those of new applicants were automatically rejected. Do the actions of the licensing body violate the dormant commerce clause? Explain.
