Bill Overview
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.
Public banned supplement list and website
If enacted, this bill would require the Secretary of Defense to publish and update, at least every 90 days, a public list of (1) dietary supplement ingredients banned for service members and (2) performance-enhancing substances banned for service members. The list would be posted three ways: a full webpage viewable without a search, a searchable database, and a downloadable common-format file. If enacted, the Secretary would also update the Operation Supplement Safety website within one year to improve vendor and member tools. The website review would consider autofill and autocorrect search, AI label-scanning to check ingredients, and alerts when an ingredient is added.
Protections for service members using supplements
If enacted, this bill would let a commanding officer choose not to discipline a member for a first offense of possessing or using a dietary supplement that contains an ingredient on the prohibited list, except for substances scheduled under 21 U.S.C. 812. This would apply only if the officer finds the member acted in good faith and the member agrees to education, counseling, or drug testing instead of discipline. The bill would define good faith to include not knowing the ingredient, buying the product from a DoD-affiliated retail facility, reasonably relying on a list search that missed a misspelling or name variation, or another reasonable belief the product did not contain the ingredient. If enacted, the Secretary would also be required to revise DoD Instruction 6130.06 within 120 days and to review adding supplement-safety education into training within one year. The bill would state that possession of such a listed supplement (other than scheduled controlled substances) would not count as drug abuse under title 10.
