GovInfo lists H.R. 9988 as introduced July 30, 2026, by Rep. Luna for herself and original cosponsors including Rep. Michael Rulli, then referred to House Energy and Commerce. The full title is to include barley, rye, and oats as major food allergens.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Rulli took concrete same-term legislative action by being an original cosponsor of the FASTER Act of 2026, matching the commitment's gluten-allergen labeling legislation, but the bill was only referred to committee.

The introduced bill text replaces wheat with gluten-containing grain, defines that term to include wheat, rye, barley, oats, and crossbred hybrids such as triticale, and requires an HHS report to Congress on celiac disease data, diagnostics, prevention, risk reduction, and therapeutics within one year after enactment.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The bill Rulli cosponsored substantively matches both parts of the promise: expanded federal major-allergen labeling for gluten-containing grains including oats and triticale, plus an HHS celiac-disease report. As of the official record, it has not been enacted, so policy delivery remains unresolved despite clear support.

Rulli fulfilled the promise as worded by supporting matching federal legislation during his House term: he was an original cosponsor of H.R. 9988, introduced July 30, 2026, which would expand major food allergen labeling to gluten-containing grains including wheat, rye, barley, oats, and hybrids such as triticale, and would require an HHS report to Congress on celiac disease surveillance, diagnostics, prevention, risk reduction, and treatments. The bill had not been enacted in the provided record, so the underlying policy was not law, but the commitment was specifically to support legislation rather than to secure enactment.
