The Consumer Brands Association respectfully opposes House Bill 5115. We represent a broad section of America’s food, beverage, and ingredient industries. The safety and quality of what we make and sell to our customers is of the highest importance, and we maintain a commitment to the continuation of a strong federal food safety system. The United States has the safest, most efficient, and affordable food system in the world. The U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) and industry collaborate to ensure the most up-to-date science and protocols inform a science and risk-based system for the evaluation of food and color additives.
