American Medicine Safety and Security Act

This bill sets conditions on who can work at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and what they can do after leaving. It bars nationals of China, Russia, or Iran from working or being paid to perform services for the FDA. FDA workers with a parent, sibling, or child who is a national of one of those countries must report it, and anyone who fails to report must be fired. FDA employees must agree not to work for any entity based in those countries for 10 years after leaving the FDA. Reviewers of drug and device applications with such family ties, or who previously worked for an entity based in those countries, would be limited to data held by their own office.
