Trade Association Memberships
RBI supports trade associations in the United States that represent a broad spectrum of views on industry and policy issues. It is our practice to require these trade associations to agree that no part of RBI’s dues will be used for political contributions, independent expenditures, electioneering communications, or ballot initiatives, as those terms are defined by applicable law. Also, no part of the dues may be deposited into any account used by any association required to report its contributions and expenditures under Section 527 of the Internal Revenue Code. The following is a list of national trade associations in the United States of which RBI is a member and pays annual dues of $50,000 or more:
- National Restaurant Association
Political Action Committee
