"The independent grocery channel plays a significant role in the nation's economy through the generation of billions in sales and the creation of reliable jobs,” said NGA president and CEO Peter J. Larkin. “Legislators and policymakers make decisions that impact our businesses on almost a daily basis, and it is critical that our industry is active and unified in the political process to ensure our interests are well represented."

The new NGA Political Action Center will seek to educate and involve independent grocers in the political process through action alerts on industry issues, legislative scorecards, and up-to-date election information on candidates nationwide.
