Every day, government makes policy decisions that affect the fate of small business - decisions that determine whether your restaurant will flourish or flounder.
"I’m going to be in this industry for 30 or 40 years. The decisions made today are going to affect me for a long time.”
- Matt Kealy,
Kealy’s Kafe and Matt’s Dog House of Janesville |
Politics impacts:
- Your tax rates
- Regulations that make it hard to do business
- Wages you pay your employees
- How you handle your food
- When you can schedule teen employees to work
- How much you pay for licensing fees
- Bans on products that you sell
- the list goes on!
"WRA represents the interests of all small businesses. Advocating on our behalf and helping us be effective communicators with elected officials.”
- Paul Cunningham,
Schreiner’s Restaurant in Fond du Lac |
WRA opposes legislation that is bad for small businesses and supports legislation to promote, protect and improve our industry as a whole.
"WRA fights for our causes to keep our business profitable. They put a face to our industry in the government.”
- Mark Landreman, Landreman’s Family Restaurant in Kaukauna |
