VRLTA represents you – restaurant owners, managers, and employees – when it comes to legislative issues that affect the restaurant industry as a whole. We support our members’ interests through legislative representation with the goal of protecting and maintaining Virginia’s high tourism season, VA ABC legislation and regulations, tourism funding, and taxation and workforce issues.

This support also includes lobbying updates at the local, state, and federal levels as well as research from our national partners – the National Restaurant Association and the American Hotel & Lodging Association.
