Improving Newborn Formula Access for a Nutritious Tomorrow Act of 2025 or the INFANT Act of 2025
This bill requires a state to select two infant formula manufacturers as suppliers under the competitive bidding process for the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC). Currently, a state may only select a single infant formula manufacturer as a supplier.
Specifically, the bill redefines competitive bidding to mean a procurement process under which a state agency selects two manufacturers for a product; a state may designate one of the manufacturers as the primary manufacturer and one as the secondary manufacturer.
