To provide for the regulation of hemp-derived beverages, and for other purposes.

H.R. 10079 was introduced on August 10, 2026, by Rep. Beth Van Duyne (R-TX) to provide for the regulation of hemp-derived beverages. As of this writing, the bill's official text has not yet been published, so its specific provisions, definitions, and requirements are not available. Based on the title alone, the bill concerns establishing some form of federal regulatory framework for beverages made with hemp-derived ingredients, but the details of what that framework would require are not yet known.

Because the text is unavailable, it is not yet possible to say precisely who would be affected or how — potential parties could include hemp beverage manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and regulatory agencies, but this is inferred from the subject matter alone, not from confirmed provisions.

The bill is at the earliest stage of the legislative process: it has been introduced in the House and referred for committee consideration, which is the only recorded action so far. From here, it would typically need to be considered by the relevant committee(s), potentially amended, and voted out of committee before it could reach the House floor. A companion bill or Senate counterpart would separately need to pass, and any differences would need to be reconciled before the bill could go to the President. Updated information will become available once the full bill text and any committee actions are published.
