A full text of the bill can be downloaded (pdf) at usfoodtrace but as is often the case it's an "edited copy" with removed portions still shown as "strikeout" text, and with numerous references to other laws/regulations that are "amended by citation" so it's almost impossible to read as is.

Nearly all of the first 120 pages (of 266) are "strikeouts," although there may be "fragments" that remain.

I did a pdf to Word conversion in the hope that the char format would come across and I would be able to delete "everything in strikeout characters," but the conversion lost the strikes, so it's useless (despite running for more than an hour trying to handle all the strike-thru linework, which it then dropped out).

On the surface, the bill appears to address many recent complaints that existing laws allow regulatory agencies to "complain" about food safety and sanitation violations, but gives them no actual authority to force anyone to comply with existing standards. If it does that, and doesn't extend into other areas, it probably is a valid and much-needed bill. I can't tell, as yet, what it actually does in its present form.

Interestingly, it specifically exempts virtually the entire liquor industry from any effect of this bill. That could be another instance of "industry influence" or it could be because the liquor industry is already under good (excessive?) control. There are some other "limits" but I can't decipher them as yet.

The main application appears to be only to "facilities" already required to register with existing agencies; but I haven't yet found what constitutes a "regulated facility." The Fed generally has to use the pretext that someone engages in "interstate commerce" in order to regulate them; but reporting and traceability requirements that appear to be in the bill could require registered facilities to require additional record keeping by "local suppliers" whose product is mixed into something they ship across state lines(?).

That current agencies have authority to inspect, but NO AUTHORITY to require compliance, is a very big hole in food safety oversight. It does need some correction; but I can't tell whether this bill does that, or something else.
