Walberg Resolution Demanding Answers on Biden’s Baby Formula Crisis Passes Committee

September 21, 2022

Washington, D.C.—Today, the Energy and Commerce Committee favorably reported Congressman Tim Walberg’s (MI-07) resolution to bring greater oversight and transparency to the ongoing baby formula crisis. Walberg’s resolution calls for Biden administration to release documents related to the recall of infant formula and potential impacts on the infant formula supply chain. H.Res.1287 passed the Committee with unanimous support from Republican and Democratic members.

“The breakdown of America’s baby formula production and distribution has terrified parents across the country as they drive from store to store only to find low to zero inventory and purchasing restrictions,” said Walberg. “Even today, months into this crisis and it is still not under control. The average out-of-stock rates in stores and online last month was 61%. Today, Republicans and Democrats agreed that we need answers about the Biden administration’s delayed and disastrous response. The American people deserve greater transparency, and I am calling on Speaker Pelosi to now bring this resolution to the House floor for a full vote.”
