“We applaud Reps. Franklin, Bishop and Panetta for their leadership on the Food Traceability Enhancement Act, which will resolve key challenges in implementing the rule in a way that enhances food safety without unnecessary burdens and costs throughout the food supply chain. We encourage Members of Congress to cosponsor this commonsense legislation and look forward to working with them to ensure this legislation is passed this year, even as we continue to collaborate with FDA to seek regulatory implementation solutions.”
