Mr. KLECZKA introduced the following bill; which was referred to the
Committee on Energy and Commerce
A BILL
To amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to
require that foods derived from plant varieties developed
by methods of genetic modification be labeled to identify
their derivation.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. LABELING.
Section 403 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic
Act (21 U.S.C. 343) is amended by adding at the end the
following:
‘‘(s)(1) If it is derived from a plant variety which has
been developed by methods of genetic modification unless
it is labeled in accordance with regulations of the Sec-
retary to identify the food as being so derived.
‘‘(2) For purposes of paragraph (1)—
‘‘(A) the term ‘variety’ describes a subgroup of
plants (whether varieties or cultivars) within a spe-
cies developed for desirable traits,
‘‘(B) the term ‘modification’ means the major
or minor alteration in the composition of food that
results from adding, deleting, or changing hereditary
traits, irrespective of the method, and

ment section 403(s) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cos-
metic Act (as added by section 1) not later than 6 months
after the date of the enactment of this Act. Within 6
months of the date proposed regulations are published in
the Federal Register, the Secretary shall issue final regu-
lations. If the Secretary does not issue final regulations
upon the expiration of such 12 months, the Congress finds
that there is good cause for the proposed regulations to
be considered final regulations without response to com-
ment because the implementation of the section with re-
spect to which such regulations were proposed is essential
to protect the public health. Consequently in such event,
the proposed regulations shall become the final regula-
tions. There shall be promptly published in the Federal
Register a notice of the new status of the proposed regula-
tions. If the proposed regulations become final under this
subparagraph, the Secretary shall complete the rule-
making begun with such proposed regulations.
(b) EFFECTIVE DATE.—The amendment made by
