A new federal agency would take over food safety inspections from the FDA.
This bill would create a new Federal Food Administration (FFA) within the Department of Health and Human Services.

The goal is to ensure foods are safe, wholesome, sanitary, and properly labeled for consumers.
Today, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) handles all food safety regulations and inspections.
