Establishes a system for recognizing accreditation bodies and expands food safety information sharing with state and local authorities.
The Making America's Food Safer Act amends the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to create a system for recognizing accreditation bodies that accredit third-party auditors. These auditors certify that eligible entities meet food safety requirements. The bill also allows the Secretary of Health and Human Services to share unredacted food safety information with state, local, tribal, and territorial authorities. This information includes foodborne illness surveillance data, laboratory testing information, and inspection results.
