The FDA Globalization Act of 2009 has been submitted to Congress by Representative John Dingell (D-MI) to increase the FDA's scope of funding and authority. 

See sections 201-212 for new provisions for pharmaceuticals and medical devices.  It's worth noting that this bill proposes a risk-based approach to inspection frequency (Sec. 202) and use of Quality Risk Management Plans (Sec. 505).
