RFK Jr targets companies making baby formula after shortages rocked Biden administration
Fox News
The Trump administration launched a new initiative Tuesday focused on ensuring infant formula has the necessary nutrients and is void of harmful contaminants.
The new, comprehensive review of baby formula in the U.S. follows a shortage in 2022 under former President Joe Biden, after a recall from a major manufacturer over bacterial contaminants and COVID-19 supply chain disruptions forced the military to fly in more formula from other countries. A Pro-Publica report last year also highlighted how, under the previous administration, the U.S. pushed more than half-a-dozen countries to loosen their baby formula regulations.
Operation Stork Speed will commence with several steps. One includes the initiation of a nutrient review, which will be the FDA's first comprehensive update and review of infant formula nutrients since 1998. Another step includes ramping up testing for heavy metals and other contaminants in baby formula, while other steps revolve around addressing transparency and labeling concerns in the baby formula manufacturing industry.
