Three months after Biden pledged a fix – and nearly a year after federal officials first learned of the problem – the nationwide baby formula shortage shows no sign of easing.
With out-of-stock rates for formula remaining sky-high, desperate parents feel “forgotten” – abandoned by an administration that promised MONTHS ago to “make sure that families in every part of the country can get the formula they need.”
Today: 30% of baby formula is STILL out of stock.

So how did things get so bad for so long?
For starters, Biden didn’t even mention the crisis until May – many months after the problem began. Initially, the Biden administration promised stock would normalize “in a few weeks,” then in “a couple more months.”
Now, even after images of terrified parents waiting on tarmacs for airlifts of formula from foreign countries have repeatedly permeated the news cycle, Biden and his incompetent band of bureaucrats have abdicated virtually all responsibility.
Biden officials insist “America feels more like itself again,” but that’s little consolation to desperate parents with starving babies.
