AFFI’s Government Action Summit is an annual event that brings our members from across the frozen food and beverage industry together to meet with our legislative and regulatory leaders on our most pressing public policy matters. While this is a members-only event, we encourage anyone in the frozen food industry to visit our action center to message their representatives in Congress about industry issues.
