Darden Restaurants spends $290K to lobby in 4Q

WASHINGTON

Darden Restaurants Inc. spent nearly $300,000 in the fourth quarter to lobby on issues related to food safety and menu nutrition information along with other matters, according to a recent disclosure report.

The trade group also lobbied the federal government on legislation related to tax law for depreciation and charitable contributions, collective bargaining measures and health insurance legislation.

In the October-through-December period, the group lobbied both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate, according to a disclosure report filed in January with the House clerk's office.
