Bill Summary
RESOLUTION Reaffirming the preemptive authority of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 301 et seq.) and the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 201 et seq.) (including regulations thereunder) with respect to State laws that inhibit access to or use of any reproductive health product.
AI Summary
This Resolution reaffirms that federal laws, specifically the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (often referred to as the FD&C Act) and the Public Health Service Act, along with their associated regulations, take precedence over any state laws that restrict access to or the use of reproductive health products. These federal laws grant the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) the sole authority to approve, license, authorize, or clear such products, which are defined as any product used to manage pregnancy, conditions related to pregnancy, or the reproductive system. The Resolution emphasizes that this federal authority preempts, meaning it overrides, any conflicting state laws or regulations that attempt to limit access to these products, and it also affirms the Attorney General's power to take legal action against states that violate this federal preemption.
