Health & Human Services discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Health & Human Services's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
Oversees FDA activities related to food safety and nutrition, using science-based approaches to prevent foodborne illness, reduce diet-related chronic disease, and ensure the safety of chemicals in food.
Extracted from Food and Drug Administration, p. 12. Verbatim; nothing here is paraphrased.
