What this bill does
AI plain-language summaryThis bill requires the FDA to regularly review the safety of certain chemicals used in food and food packaging. At least every three years, the FDA must pick at least 10 substances to re-examine, focusing first on those that matter most for public health, such as titanium dioxide, sodium nitrite, and certain food dyes. If the FDA finds that a previously approved substance is not safe, it must change or remove the rules that allowed its use. The FDA must also share its findings with the public and bring back a special advisory committee to help guide these safety reviews.
