Front-Burner Issues
Did You Know?
With 945,000 locations nationwide, America’s restaurants reside in every congressional district across the country.
As one of the nation's largest private sector employers -- with close to 13 million employees -– the restaurant industry represents almost 10 percent of those who voted in the 2008 presidential election.
Each additional $1 million in restaurant sales generates 34 more jobs for the nation’s economy.
The bottom line: With such an enormous impact, restaurateurs need to have a voice in Washington!
Government decisions touch every aspect of your operation. Explore "The Regulated Restaurant" to understand the impact. Walk through our virtual restaurant to see how federal, state and local laws affect the employees you hire, the ingredients in your food, the equipment in your kitchen, the building where you operate and, most importantly, your bottom line. Then join the National Restaurant Association and help us fight for pro-restaurant policies to benefit your business.
