Since 2014, Sommer has been the president of the European Parliament Beer Club.[2] In 2010 she was the rapporteur of the directive on food labelling[2] and she opposes any EU-wide approach to alcohol regulation, citing cultural differences across countries.[3]
In 2019, during the debate of the new General Food Law Regulation which followed the controversial reauthorisation of glyphosate, she opposed an increased transparency for the European Food Safety Authority, but the plenary of the European Parliament in December 2018 rejected her proposals and she resigned from her position as rapporteur. The regulation was eventually passed in April 2019 without her proposals.[2][4]
