On May 21 local time, US President Joe Biden signed the 2022 access to infant formula act during his visit to Asia.
The access to infant formula act 2022 aims to ensure that families in need in the United States can continue to purchase infant formula with WIC benefits during supply chain problems such as public health emergencies or product recalls. WIC is a federal assistance program designed to provide special benefits and nutritional supplements to women, infants and children.
The White House announced that the United States will ship about 1.5 million bottles of formula milk powder from Switzerland to Indiana for distribution this week.
