Confronted with “more economic challenges than ever before,” Stop & Shop is calling on Congress to pass legislation to stop organized retail crime, an issue it says is causing prices to climb.

President Roger Wheeler has revealed the issue in a letter sent to members of the Massachusetts delegation in response to an inquiry about potential price gouging at Stop & Shop’s urban store locations.
