Bill overview
The Food Reform for Effective and Sustainable Health (FRESH) Act of 2026 aims to strengthen the National Nutrition Monitoring and Related Research Act by formally incorporating the latest Dietary Guidelines for Americans, released in 2025-2030. Specifically, the bill requires the USDA and HHS Secretaries to submit the guidelines to Congress for approval before they are implemented. This ensures that federal nutrition policy aligns with the most current scientific recommendations. The bill also prevents the Dietary Guidelines from being modified or replaced without Congressional authorization.
