Summary
This bill amends the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to expand the Secretary of Health and Human Services' authority to destroy imported articles that are refused admission at the border if they present a significant public health concern. It also makes it a prohibited act to move or introduce into interstate commerce any article the Secretary has decided to destroy under this expanded authority. The Secretary must finalize implementing regulations within 90 days, with a 180-day implementation period before the amendments take effect.
