"The restaurant industry nationwide is an economic powerhouse — serving an estimated 133 million Americans each day, employing 13.1 million people, and accounting for 4 percent of the U.S. gross domestic product. This industry is too vital to our nation and its communities not to be fully active in politics and government," said Ned Monroe, vice president of political affairs for the NRA. "It's crucial our voices are heard, and the Restaurant Action Network will ensure that they are."
The Restaurant Action Network is just one part of Mission '08, the National Restaurant Association's program designed to register voters and rally the restaurant community for the upcoming presidential and congressional elections.
