4 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 2 mixed.
Within 1 year, FDA would set a federal standard of identity for honey using United States Pharmacopeia guidance. This would guide labeling and identity checks for honey sold in the U.S. Producers and importers may need to adjust labels and sourcing to meet the standard.
Qualifying honey packers would pay fees set by the Secretary to help run the program. Fees would be collected only if Congress allows them in future appropriations and would remain available until spent. The bill also authorizes the funding needed to carry out this section.
The bill would create a Honey Integrity Program at FDA to spot and stop adulterated honey. Starting 180 days after enactment, qualifying honey packers would need to test honey they plan to sell, certify compliance, and report results. If they find adulteration, they would notify FDA and law enforcement within 24 hours and refuse the shipment. FDA would set combined DNA and chemical testing rules, consult Customs and Agriculture, and could use their labs if needed. When alerted, FDA would investigate, confirm with federal labs, destroy adulterated honey, and share data with agencies and producer groups.
Upon enactment, the bill would define key terms, including who counts as a qualifying commercial honey packer and what economically motivated adulteration means. FDA would publish and update a public list of qualifying packers and any that are excluded. Within 2 years, FDA would report to Congress on actions against adulterated or misbranded honey.
