Advocacy Fund
Contributions to the ORA's advocacy fund equip the ORA to fight issues and mandates that would:
Be devastating to Ohio’s hospitality industry
Negatively impact Ohio’s economy
Inhibit Ohio’s future growth potential
The Association continues its support of policies that promote a pro-growth business environment in Ohio.
The ORA is pro-business on local, state and federal issues important to our members’ bottom lines.
Through its political action committee, the ORA supports ideas, legislation and proposed laws that stimulate the economy and protect the growth of Ohio's restaurant, foodservice & hospitality industry. The ORA opposes ideas, legislation and proposed laws that could harm the success of ORA members’ businesses.
The Association's approach to working with government officials is non-partisan. The ORA respects all views and regularly meets with members of both governing parties to best represent Ohio's foodservice industry.
Please join the Ohio Restaurant Association and restaurant & foodservice leaders from around Ohio for a happy hour reception benefitting the Ohio Restaurant PAC with invited special guest Lieutenant Governor Jon Husted.
