Nevada Assembly Oks Restaurant Menu Calorie Bill

Chain restaurants will have to post nutritional information on menus under a bill passed by the Nevada Assembly.  AB 126 was approved on a mostly party-line vote.

It requires restaurants with 15 or more locations to post  calorie information on-site, up from 10 in the initial bill.  Another change makes penalties administrative, rather than criminal.

Opponents of the bill say federal officials are already developing similar regulations, and they didn’t want to pre-empt  those rules. The bill now goes to the Senate.
