SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``DSHEA Full Implementation and 
Enforcement Act of 2003''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) Over 158,000,000 Americans regularly consume dietary 
        supplements to maintain and improve their health.
            (2) Consumer expenditures on dietary supplements reached a 
        reported $17,100,000,000 in 2000, double the amount spent in 
        1994.
            (3) According to a recent report issued by the Food and 
        Drug Administration (in this Act referred to as the ``FDA'') 
        the use of dietary supplements is likely to grow due to factors 
        such as the aging of the baby boom generation, increased 
        interest in self-sufficiency, and advances in science that are 
        uncovering new relationships between diet and disease.
            (4) In 1994, the Dietary Supplement Health and Education 
        Act of 1994 (Public Law 103-417) (in this Act referred to as 
        ``DSHEA'') was enacted. This Act balanced continued consumer 
        access to vitamins, minerals, and other dietary supplements, 
        increased scientific research on the benefits and risks of 
        dietary supplements, public education on dietary supplements, 
        and needed consumer protections.
            (5) DSHEA requires that claims made on dietary supplement 
        labels, packaging, and accompanying material be truthful, non-
        misleading, and substantiated. Manufacturers are prohibited 
        from making claims that products are intended to diagnose, 
        treat, mitigate, cure, or prevent a disease.
            (6) DSHEA provides for good manufacturing practice 
        standards setting requirements for potency, purity, sanitary 
        conditions, and recordkeeping for dietary supplements.
            (7) DSHEA requires that manufacturers submit adequate 
        information as to the safety of any new ingredients contained 
        in dietary supplements before those products can be sold.
            (8) The FDA has updated and expanded its system for the 
        reporting, collection, and analysis of dietary supplement 
        adverse events reports.
            (9) DSHEA provides the FDA with a number of authoritites to 
        remove unsafe dietary supplements from the marketplace.
            (10) DSHEA created the Office of Dietary Supplements within 
        the National Institutes of Health to expand research and 
        consumer information about the health effects of dietary 
        supplements.
            (11) The FDA has not adequately used its authority to 
        enforce DSHEA.
            (12) The FDA needs adequate resources to appropriately 
        implement and enforce DSHEA. Congress has appropriated 
        additional funds over the last several years beyond those 
        requested in the President's budget to implement and enforce 
        DSHEA, reaching $9,700,000 in fiscal year 2003.
            (13) However, according to the FDA, full implementation of 
        DSHEA would require substantial additional resources. The FDA 
        asserts that between $24,000,000 and $65,000,000 per year will 
        be needed to fully implement DSHEA.
