On Behalf of Grocery Stores, Pizzerias, and Convenience Retailers Across the United State
February 5, 2018 Dear Representatives: On behalf of grocery stores, pizzerias, and convenience retailers across the United States, we request that you support the Common Sense Nutrition Disclosure Act of 2017 – H.R. 772 – when it is considered on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives. CSNDA would provide our businesses, which have highly variable menu offerings, with more efficient compliance with the caloric disclosure rule issued by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The retail food marketplace is a diverse one with many different types of retail establishments that use various business models. FDA wrote the rule essentially for one type of restaurant – those with a static or fixed menu – and ignored all others in the marketplace. The recent FDA guidance was unable to resolve the issues we needed resolved. With the May 7, 2018 compliance date only a few months away, now is the time for Congress to take action and fix the rule. Opponents of CSNDA have made false claims and we would like to set the record straight. Some NGOs and others who are looking to exploit and profit from the rule’s problems have claimed that our industries are attempting to gain an “exemption” from the FDA rule. This charge is patently untrue. Nothing in CSNDA would exempt any industry from the calorie-disclosure regulations. Every retail establishment covered under FDA’s current rule would remain covered should the CSNDA become law. These covered entities simply would gain needed regulatory flexibility. Others have claimed that passage of CSNDA would endanger the federal preemption that exists under the rule or that it would cause undue confusion in the marketplace.

The National Grocers Association
March 2, 2018 Dear Member of Congress: The National Grocers Association (NGA) is the national trade association representing the retail and wholesale grocers that comprise the independent sector of the food distribution industry, accounting for over $131 billion in annual sales and nearly 1 million American jobs. Independent grocers are a proud partner with the federal government in ensuring low-income Americans have access to a variety of affordable foods through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). The undersigned organizations, comprised of independent retailers and wholesalers from all 50 States, strongly oppose replacing household SNAP benefits with a government-run direct food distribution service. As you know, the Administration’s fiscal year 2019 budget proposes to restructure the SNAP program by replacing about 40 percent of household SNAP benefits with a government-run “Harvest Box” distribution service. Instead of letting households use their SNAP benefits at their local grocery store, SNAP funding would be used to send eligible households a box of non- perishable food items. We believe that putting the government in charge of nutrition benefit distribution fails to appreciate the free-market, competitive efficiencies achieved through the successful public-private SNAP partnership. History demonstrates that when the government doles out food, not only is it inefficient and more expensive to the taxpayer, but low-income populations also end up hungry and malnourished. In the 1960s, Congress passed the Food Stamp Act to help both the Nation’s poor and struggling farmers. During and after the Great Depression, farmers were producing more food than the nation could consume or export, while many impoverished Americans had little access to government-run surplus food programs.
