Dear Ms xxxxxx,

Thank you for taking the time to contact us in reaction to recent news reports regarding Julie Fancelli’s political donations.

Mrs. Fancelli is not an employee of Publix Super Markets, and is neither involved in our business operations, nor does she represent the company in any way. We cannot comment on Mrs. Fancelli’s actions.

The violence at the Capitol on Jan. 6 was a national tragedy. The deplorable actions that occurred that day do not represent the values, work or opinions of Publix Super Markets.

Thank you again for sharing your thoughts and for allowing us to continue to do our very best to serve you.

Sincerely,
Publix Super Markets
