Fighting for a Seat at the Table in State Houses Across the Country

Ensuring the voices of restaurant operators and employees make a difference close to home.

Our Work in the States

We work closely with 52 state restaurant associations (50 states, Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia) to create a truly national structure with local impact. State-by-state support strengthens our work and ensures that restaurants of all sizes and types, wherever they are, have a voice in the regulations created close to home.

Restaurants are engines of economic growth, injecting billions into local and state economies. Whether it’s creating jobs, developing careers, or supporting local charities and businesses, the foodservice industry generates a significant impact in communities across the country.
