Thank House Committee Members for Taking a Stance on NDI!

Fourteen members of Congress—all of them members of the House Energy and Commerce Committee—wrote to the FDA, raising their concerns about the NDI guidance which threatens our access to supplements. In their letter, they highlighted many of our major concerns about the guidance.

In October of last year, the committee announced it would start investigating legislation that is redundant and threatens jobs and the economy. The NDI draft guidance is a perfect example of this.

Please write to the Committee, thank them for writing the letter, and ask them to encourage their colleagues to raise their voices in agreement.

Dear [Decision Maker],

I was overjoyed to read the letter you sent to Dr. Hamburg about the draft guidance for New Dietary Ingredients. You highlighted many of my own concerns about the guidance: it doesn't allow innovation; it's contrary to the intent of Congress when DSHEA was passed; it's a de facto pre-market approval process that is more appropriate to a food additive market; it will cost jobs and harm the economy; and it's beyond FDA's resources to carry out.

Last year, your committee announced it would start investigating legislation that is redundant and threatens jobs and the economy. The NDI draft guidance is a perfect example of this.

This guidance desperately needs to be rewritten, with input from the stakeholders. Thank you for your courage in asking FDA to start over. This time, I hope they will hold to the law as enacted through DSHEA and not attempt to create new legislation that you, our legislators, never imagined!

Please encourage your colleagues in the House to raise their voices in agreement. Please get them to make one-minute floor speeches, as Rep. Randy Hultgren did, or write to FDA themselves, as a number of senators and representatives have done. FDA needs to see a strong push-back from Congress before the agency will stop attempting to make an end-run around the system.

Sincerely,
