McKenna was an adherent of the substantive due process doctrine, voting with the majority in Lochner v. New York, Meyer v. Nebraska, and Adkins v. Children's Hospital. At the same time, he was the author of the court's opinion in Bunting v. Oregon. His jurisprudence on the commerce clause was largely unsound. He opposed Hammer v. Dagenhart and Adair v. United States, but voted with the majority in Champion v. Ames and the Shreveport Rate Case.
