San Bernardino, California (June 18, 2015) – Over 200 members of the Stater Bros. Family of Employees, its supplier friends, and representatives from Operation Community Cares (a local organization that supports our troops) joined forces on Saturday, June 13, 2015 to assemble over 1,000 care packages for our local soldiers who are serving overseas.
Each care package is valued at $50, and members of the Stater Bros. Family of Employees funded over 50% of this project, with the remainder coming from the company’s supplier
friends. Some of the 65 items included in the care packages were coffee, oatmeal, beef jerky, sunflower seeds, assorted toiletries, magazines and game books.
Everyone involved in this project was asked to provide names of family members and friends who are currently deployed. With the help of the United States Post Office, these care packages will soon be in the mail and in the hands of grateful soldiers.
“Stater Bros. founders Leo and Cleo Stater were World War II veterans and service to our great country is part of the Stater brothers’ legacy that we proudly celebrate today,” stated Jack H. Brown, Chairman and CEO of Stater Bros. Markets and a Navy Veteran. “Stater Bros. is pleased to let these courageous soldiers know that we in the Heartland are thinking of them and praying for their safe return,” Brown further stated.
“It’s hard to put into words all the emotion and feeling that come from a parent calling to tell you how much a simple care package meant to a child thousands of miles from home,” said Ryan Orr, President of Operation Community Cares. “We have also been told that care packages save lives, because a service person who is alert and happy is more aware, and this can save a life.”
About Operation Community Cares: Operation Community Cares is an organization that proactively supports the health and welfare of our American Servicemen and Women across the globe. Far too often, the commitment of our service people is forgotten and OCC specializes in programs that help service people to communicate and connect with family, friends and loved ones through the unique web-based environment. They have various programs that aim to support the troops’ personal needs. Best of all, OCC carries its commitment to service people that are at home as well. For some, returning home can be a very trying and stressful experience. Our troops deserve the very best.
About Stater Bros. Charities:Stater Bros. Charities is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that supports critical needs in the communities where Stater Bros. employees live and work. Since 2008, Stater Bros. Charities has provided funding to countless local organizations and causes that benefit hunger relief, children’s well-being, education, health, and help for our nation’s veterans. Funds are raised throughout the year from generous customers, supplier friends, and caring members of the Stater Bros. Supermarket Family. For more information log onto www.staterbros.com.

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR’S PROPOSED FIDUCIARY DUTY RULE
Written by Thomas J. Donohue, president/CEO US Chamber of CommerceGood intentions do not guarantee good regulations. Unintended consequences often eclipse the improvements a rule aims to make, ultimately causing more harm than good. Such is
the case with the Department of Labor’s (DOL’s) proposed fiduciary duty rule, which purports to protect consumers but could actually limit their access to retirement services or lock them out of the retirement market altogether.
The DOL has proposed a rule to expand the definition of a “fiduciary”--someone who has a legal obligation to act exclusively on behalf of a client--so that it applies to anyone dispensing financial and retirement advice. Why? Regulators have decided that only fiduciaries will act in the best interests of their clients. They apparently believe that other advisors--such as brokers, who are already heavily regulated--always give conflicted advice to investors. Therefore, brokers servicing individual retirement accounts should also be held to the fiduciary standard, creating new costs and regulatory hurdles for providing retirement advice.
According to a new study commissioned by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, small businesses and their employees will bear the brunt of the proposed rule’s consequences.
Today, 99% of employers in the United States are small businesses, responsible for 63% of new private sector jobs. To compete with larger companies and attract employees, small businesses need affordable retirement savings plans. Many use SEP and SIMPLE IRA plans because they provide a simple, cost-effective way for small businesses to contribute to their employees’ retirement. As of the end of 2014, these small business retirement plans held approximately $472 billion in retirement assets for more than 9 million households.
The proposed rule would threaten the availability of these kinds of affordable retirement options. It would create higher costs that would be passed on to small businesses, potentially limiting their ability to offer retirement plans. And some advisors may not be able to justify the expense or absorb the risk of changing business models and fee structures for small-scale plans, so they could cease to provide those services.
Strengthening transparency and accountability for Americans’ retirement savings is a noble goal that the U.S. Chamber supports. But the proposed DOL rule is the wrong way to achieve it. The proposal would make it harder for financial advisors to offer good counsel, and it would discourage small businesses from doing right by their employees and helping put them on the path to a secure future.
We must not limit consumers’ choice or access in the name of their own protection. That’s throwing out the baby with the bathwater. Instead, let’s focus on how to better educate, inform, and serve them.

San Bernardino, California (June 18, 2015) – Over 200 members of the Stater Bros. Family of Employees, its supplier friends, and representatives from Operation Community Cares (a local organization that supports our troops) joined forces on Saturday, June 13, 2015 to assemble over 1,000 care packages for our local soldiers who are serving overseas.
Each care package is valued at $50, and members of the Stater Bros. Family of Employees funded over 50% of this project, with the remainder coming from the company’s supplier
friends. Some of the 65 items included in the care packages were coffee, oatmeal, beef jerky, sunflower seeds, assorted toiletries, magazines and game books.
Everyone involved in this project was asked to provide names of family members and friends who are currently deployed. With the help of the United States Post Office, these care packages will soon be in the mail and in the hands of grateful soldiers.
“Stater Bros. founders Leo and Cleo Stater were World War II veterans and service to our great country is part of the Stater brothers’ legacy that we proudly celebrate today,” stated Jack H. Brown, Chairman and CEO of Stater Bros. Markets and a Navy Veteran. “Stater Bros. is pleased to let these courageous soldiers know that we in the Heartland are thinking of them and praying for their safe return,” Brown further stated.
“It’s hard to put into words all the emotion and feeling that come from a parent calling to tell you how much a simple care package meant to a child thousands of miles from home,” said Ryan Orr, President of Operation Community Cares. “We have also been told that care packages save lives, because a service person who is alert and happy is more aware, and this can save a life.”
About Operation Community Cares: Operation Community Cares is an organization that proactively supports the health and welfare of our American Servicemen and Women across the globe. Far too often, the commitment of our service people is forgotten and OCC specializes in programs that help service people to communicate and connect with family, friends and loved ones through the unique web-based environment. They have various programs that aim to support the troops’ personal needs. Best of all, OCC carries its commitment to service people that are at home as well. For some, returning home can be a very trying and stressful experience. Our troops deserve the very best.
About Stater Bros. Charities:Stater Bros. Charities is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that supports critical needs in the communities where Stater Bros. employees live and work. Since 2008, Stater Bros. Charities has provided funding to countless local organizations and causes that benefit hunger relief, children’s well-being, education, health, and help for our nation’s veterans. Funds are raised throughout the year from generous customers, supplier friends, and caring members of the Stater Bros. Supermarket Family. For more information log onto www.staterbros.com.
