ABA, Grain Chain discuss 2015 Dietary Guidelines on Capitol Hill
The American Bakers Association’s (ABA) senior vice president of government relations and public affairs, Lee Sanders, in late May led members of Grain Chain in conducting meetings with agency representatives and members of Congress influential to the completion of the 2015 Dietary Guidelines.
The group held constructive discussions with U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) officials, including Richard Olson, HHS director of prevention science, and Kevin Concannon, USDA undersecretary for food, nutrition and consumer services.
