** Congress Takes Action to Help Ease Formula Shortage

** I Share Your Concerns About Lack of Baby Formula!
------------------------------------------------------------

Finally I muster the courage to post about the baby formula shortage and how it impacts working families.

I have spent months feeling ashamed and guilty for not being able to produce enough breastmilk, and the baby formula recall and shortage have made the situation even worst. Like so many parents of infants, my husband and I have driven miles to find formula, only to come home disappointed.

Our family is grateful to StarMed Healthcare for being there for many families including ours.

I hope this post serves as a reminder to be kind because we never know what someone else is going through. Thanks to my love for encouraging me to share my journey with others. And to all moms - We are enough!

LEGISLATIVE UPDATE: The Access to Baby Formula Act of 2022 (HR 7791) passed the U.S. House on May 20 .

The House also voted Wednesday to allow the federal Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Program for low income families to purchase formula from foreign suppliers. The Senate approved the legislation Thursday and President Biden signed it into law.

On Wednesday, President Joe Biden invoked the Defense Production Act to boost infant formula production and authorized imports from oversees facilities that meet U.S. safety standards.
