FARE Updates Position on California Bill SB 68 to Support
Organization cites amendments aligned with FARE recommendations enabling the change
McLEAN, Va.—July 18, 2025— FARE (Food Allergy Research & Education) today announced it is updating its position on California bill SB 68 to one of support, following amendments to the legislative language that align with recommendations FARE has made since early in the year.
“FARE has always supported the intent of the bill, but the legislation needed to be strengthened so that it could work in real-world restaurant settings and enable safer dining experiences for the food allergy community,” said Sung Poblete, PhD, RN, CEO of FARE. “We have continued to engage with Senator Menjivar’s office and other stakeholders over the past several months and while there is more work to be done, it’s much closer to what is needed. We are so pleased with the progress that has been made.”
