Summary
The Making America’s Food Safer Act updates the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to broaden accredited third‑party audits, permit the FDA to share unredacted safety information with state, local, tribal and territorial partners, and give the HHS Secretary power to order the destruction of refused food articles that pose a significant health risk. It affects food importers, auditors, and all levels of government that handle food‑safety enforcement. The changes aim to improve oversight, speed up response to outbreaks, and remove unsafe products from the U.S. market.
