As the committee with oversight of the Department of Homeland Security. DHS. the Committee on Homeland Security works dillgently to ensure that DHS effectively executes and manages its duties. and where appropriate. ensures that DHS works collaboratively with other Federal agencies. DHS. through Immigration and Customs Enforcement. often partners with FDA to investigate food and drug tampering and contamination cases. Customs and Border Protection. as well as the United States Coast Guard. also have roles in interdicting and inspecting contaminated shipments as they cross borders and seas into the country. I am pleased that this legislation requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services. HHS. to notify the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security when an HHS entity believes food has been adulterated.
