Los Angeles Chapter

Overview (no title or subtitle displayed)

Get to know the Los Angeles Chapter

With one-third of all California restaurants located in Los Angeles County, operators need to defend and protect the industry from anti-business factions and politicians who may not understand how difficult it is to operate a profitable business, while serving up healthy, tasty cuisine for patrons.

The CRA Los Angeles chapter has an assertive and proactive local political action committee that works to support and elect officials who have a handle on the top political issues affecting all restaurants. The concerted efforts by the chapter, and its Los Angeles Food and Beverage PAC, to contest potentially harmful legislation are costly, which is why the support of all restaurateurs is necessary to continue the diligent work on behalf of the industry. Join the CRA and contribute to the PAC today – the strength of the industry depends on support.
