The FDA is pushing new regulations on baby formula, but parents are fed up with government meddling. Decades of bureaucratic delays have left American families struggling to find safe, affordable options while Washington plays politics with their children’s health.
Operation Stork Speed claims to “modernize” formula standards, but conservatives see another power grab. The FDA hasn’t updated nutrition rules since 1998 – a 27-year failure now being blamed on “outdated science.” Meanwhile, heavy-handed regulations crushed small formula makers during the 2022 shortage, leaving corporate giants in control.
Dr. Marty Makary blasted the FDA’s latest move as empty theater. “This administration cares more about woke climate rules than getting formula to crying babies,” he warned. Parents remember empty shelves under Biden – a crisis created by FDA red tape shutting down a major plant over minor violations.
The FDA’s new “public comment period” is a sham. Bureaucrats want input from academics and globalists, not hardworking moms. Trump-era policies put America first by slashing regulations and fast-tracking approvals. Now families face endless delays as foreign formula floods our markets.
Nutrition standards matter, but trust belongs to parents – not unelected officials. The left wants government to replace family decisions, from breastfeeding campaigns to school lunch mandates. Conservative moms know best what their babies need, not some DC desk jockey with a clipboard.
Skyrocketing formula prices hit working-class families hardest. FDA testing rules and “diversity reports” add costs while doing nothing to improve safety. Let the free market innovate – like Trump’s policies allowed – instead of suffocating producers with paperwork and fines.
America’s birth rate keeps dropping as young couples lose faith in the future. Crushing parents with formula shortages and higher prices only deepens the crisis. Pro-family policies should make parenting easier, not unleash more agencies to harass manufacturers.
It’s time to fire the bureaucrats and put parents back in charge. The Trump administration proved common-sense solutions work. Biden’s FDA is too busy pushing gender-neutral labels on formula cans to fix real problems. Let’s make America healthy again by cutting regulations, not inventing new ones.
