National Restaurant Association Asks - One Year Pause on New Mandates

National Restaurant Association Asks – One Year Pause on New Mandates

Posted on January 27, 2021 By Editor

National Restaurant Association (NRA) Asks State Lawmakers for One Year Pause on New Mandates

Washington, DC (StLouisRestaurantReview) The National Restaurant Association today sent letters to the National Governors Association, the U.S. Conference of Mayors, and the National Conference of State Legislatures calling for a one year pause on new mandates as lawmakers across the country begin their annual legislative sessions.

Restaurants have been hardest hit by the pandemic.  In December, 42 states lost eating and drinking place jobs, and sales slowed for a third month in a row, pushing the industry into a double-dip recession.

The letter highlights that while the industry is optimistic about the vaccine rollout and the recent federal stimulus package, operators will continue to face fundamental challenges over the short-, medium-, and long-term horizons.  New legislation and regulations that add increased costs, administrative burdens, or operational complexities for restaurants could impact industry recovery.

“Now is not the time for costly new mandates. Many restaurants remain on the brink of closure, and an additional regulatory burden could push them over the edge,” said Mike Whatley, vice president of State Affairs and Grassroots Advocacy for the Association.  “More restaurant closures will lead to higher unemployment, lower tax revenue, vacant properties, and a continued reduction in the vibrancy of communities.  A one year pause will allow restaurants to focus on surviving the pandemic and rebuilding their operations going forward.”
