FDA funding for food safety increases, by a little

Thanks to the Hagstrom Report for this item.  It revealed that The Alliance for a Stronger FDA has produced a chart of the changes to the funding levels for the FDA in the Agriculture appropriations bill.

The group reports these increases for food safety funding:

$5 million for innovation and emerging technology
$7 million for advancing FSMA (the Food Safety Modernization Act)
$8 million for strengthening response to foodborne outbreaks
$3 million for dietary supplements
$5 million for imported seafood safety
$2 million for CBD activities
$500,000 for antimicrobial monitoring system
$1 million for standards of identity

These are drops in a very large bucket of need for FDA funding.

Please note that the FDA, a public health agency, gets its funding from agricultural appropriation committees, not health committees.

This is an unfortunate accident of history, but goes a long way to explaining why the FDA is so consistently underfunded.
