Sponsored By: Representative Langworthy
Introduced
Summary
Federal preemption of state dietary supplement requirements would be the core change. The bill would bar states and localities from imposing requirements that differ from, add to, or are not identical with federal dietary supplement rules and would add new subsections to Section 403A of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.
Show full summary
- Manufacturers and national brands would face a single federal standard instead of differing state rules, simplifying compliance across states.
- State and local governments would be prohibited from keeping or creating dietary supplement rules that are not identical to federal rules. They could apply to the Secretary for an exemption, which must be granted by regulation after notice and a hearing if the state shows the rule is more stringent or addresses a compelling local condition and does not make the product noncompliant with federal law.
- Retailers and distributors would likely see fewer conflicting state requirements to track, reducing regulatory complexity for interstate sales.
