HRES 1411 United States House · 119th Congress

Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 2162) to provide for the protection of the integrity of honey marketed in the United States, and for other purposes.

This resolution sets up a special procedure to immediately consider a bill titled the Honey Integrity and Consumer Transparency Act, which aims to protect the quality and authenticity of honey sold in the United States. The proposed law would create a federal standard defining what constitutes real honey by setting strict limits on chemical markers that indicate processing or the addition of foreign sugars. It establishes a new testing program where imported honey faces rigorous scrutiny and fees, while domestic producers are largely exempt from these costs and testing requirements. Additionally, the bill mandates clear country-of-origin labeling on honey packages and creates a public database to track and expose companies found to be selling fraudulent or adulterated products.
