The Supreme Court's decision in Wickard v. Filburn was based on the Commerce Clause of the Constitution, which gives Congress the power to regulate interstate commerce. The court ruled that Filburn's production of wheat on his farm, even if it was for his own personal use and not for sale, could still have an effect on interstate commerce and therefore fell under Congress's regulatory power.
