TGCSA Lobbying Activities:
TGCSA President, Jarron Springer attends hearings during the legislative sessions and works with Tennessee legislators in the best interest of TGCSA members. TGCSA’s lobbying activities support the food industry at the state level as well as monitor the regulations and issues from Washington that affect the food industry. TGCSA collaborates with state agencies, the state legislature, state officials and the Tennessee Congressional delegation in Washington to communicate the needs of the food industry. We also send an email legislative update to members while the state legislature is in session.
