Rep Kat Cammack: We Can’t Feed Our Infants Because The Biden Administration Shut Down A Baby Formula Plant Without A Backup Plan
Florida Congresswoman Kat Cammack joins Fox Across America With Jimmy Failla to break down how the baby formula shortage began and was initially ignored by the Biden Administration.
“There was a claim made or an accusation made that there was bacteria in the Michigan plant that was responsible for the tragic deaths of two infants. Well, after the investigation, Biden’s FDA and CDC comes back and says, no, there is no scientific evidence connecting the two. And then they went radio silence. So this plant has been waiting to come back up on line and they’ve had nothing in terms of communication back from the White House or the FDA. So they’ve been dormant and everyone has been accusing this plant of responsibility for the tragic death of these infants. Well, that turns out not to be the case. In the meantime, the FDA didn’t do anything to ease regulation. They didn’t do anything to lift tariffs that would allow us to import baby formula. Some of these manufacturers have plants overseas, like you said, in Europe, and they didn’t do anything to make a plan to back fill. So when you have that much baby formula being taken off in a voluntary recall out of the market, you have to have a plan in place before you even shut the plant down. You have to say we are going to make up the difference by importing from the EU. We’re going to get this here that they’re they didn’t do any of that. It took parents getting upset, contacting members of Congress, and it really put it over the edge when we found out about the stockpiling at the border.”
Guest Host Paul Gleiser and Congresswoman Cammack also forecast a red wave for the upcoming midterms.
