Summary

Requires the FDA Office of Food Chemical Safety, Dietary Supplements, and Innovation to systematically reassess food additives, color additives, GRAS substances, prior‑sanctioned substances, and food contact substances on a continuous 3‑year cycle beginning in 2026, covering at least 10 substances or classes each cycle. The FDA must publish reassessment determinations, and if a substance is found unsafe the agency must amend or revoke approvals or notifications to remove the unsafe uses. Also directs the Secretary to prioritize substances by public‑health need, allows use of an initial list of 10 substances or classes, and requires reestablishing the Food Advisory Committee within 180 days to advise on reassessment standards and processes; the provision preserves existing FDA authority under current law.

• Requires the FDA to reassess specified food- and color-related substances at least every 3 years beginning in 2026.
• Each reassessment cycle must cover at least 10 substances or classes from five named categories (food additives, color additives, GRAS, prior‑sanctioned, food contact substances).
• FDA must publicly post reassessment determinations for transparency.
• If a substance is found unsafe, the FDA must amend or revoke approvals, including prior‑sanctioned uses and applicable premarket notifications.
• The Secretary must prioritize substances by public‑health need and may use an initial list of 10 substances or classes.
• The Food Advisory Committee must be reestablished within 180 days to advise on reassessment standards and processes.
• The provision defines “class” for grouping substances and preserves existing FDA authority under current law.
• The law mandates process and transparency but does not itself provide funding or appropriate money to the FDA.
