U.S. Rep. E. Scott Garrett has won a 2008 Thomas Jefferson Award from the International Foodservice Distributors Association (IFDA).
The award, according to the group, is presented to legislators who “demonstrate their commitment to increasing opportunity and reducing government regulation through their votes on issues such as reducing taxes, workplace regulations, and other economic matters.”
Garrett received the award because his votes agreed with the IFDA’s stance over 70% of the time.
“During the 110th Congress, Representative Garrett cast crucial votes to protect America’s usinesses and promote prosperity for the American people,” said IFDA President and CEO Mark S. Allen
