Oppose HR 4167 - URGENT - vote on Thursday

[mousie]

Under the guise of promoting “uniformity” of food safety and labeling laws in the U.S., this bill requires all state food safety laws to be identical to the requirements of the Federal Food and Drug Administration. If the FDA has not passed a regulation on a food threat, then all state regulations on that threat would immediately be voided. And, since the states regulate many food safety issues not covered by the FDA, many food safety laws will be voided and replaced with no law at all.
