About the Event
Join other independent retailers, wholesalers, and state association executives in Washington, D.C. to advocate for a level playing field in the grocery industry by calling for enforcement of the Robinson-Patman Act and legislation to reform credit card routing to lower swipe fees. We will also call on Congress to pass a strong Farm Bill that ensures grocery retail remains at the center of delivering nutrition assistance through SNAP. During the Fly-In you will meet with your representatives on Capitol Hill, discuss the pressing issues that are affecting your business, and help NGA to positively impact the policymaking process. If you have any questions, please reach out to NGA’s Government Relations team at [email protected].

- Schedules your Congressional meetings and pairs you with other NGA members and experienced advocates
