Rejected petition Lower or regulate baby formula prices to support struggling families

We want the government to step in and regulate or reduce the price of baby formula. Families are struggling with rising costs, and formula is an essential item for infants. Action is needed to make it affordable and ensure all babies have access to the nutrition they need.

More details

The cost of baby formula has risen sharply, leaving many families unable to afford this essential product. Babies rely on formula for healthy growth and development, and no parent should have to struggle to provide it. Government action is needed to regulate or lower prices, ensuring all children get fair access to vital nutrition and helping to reduce financial pressure on struggling families.
