- aaronbrethorst 9y agoWant to see a stronger response? Then elect someone to the Presidency in 2020 who promises to strengthen regulations.

- srean 9y agoWell, that presumes that the promises would be kept

- Filligree 9y agoMaybe you shouldn't put so much emphasis on the executive. They're just meant to enforce the laws, it's congress's job to write them.

It starts with a formal warning letter (they send out many of those each year, for varying degrees of severity), and give the company a chance to address the non-conformities and violations. If a company fails to address the issues found, further action is taken, as evidenced by this bit from the end of the letter: "Correct the violations cited in this letter promptly. Failure to promptly correct these violations may result in legal action without further notice including, without limitation, seizure and injunction. Unresolved violations in this warning letter may also prevent other Federal agencies from awarding contracts." I've recently browsed through these warning letters for educational purposes (they're all publicly published on the FDA website), and this is by far the sternest letter I've seen.
