SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Remember last year’s nationwide infant formula shortage? Assemblywoman Lori Wilson does, and she has introduced a bill aimed at preventing a recurrence in California.
Assembly Bill 228 would direct the California Department of Public Health and the Office of Emergency Services to establish an infant formula stockpile for the state.
In an interview with The Bee, the Suisun City Democrat recalled being horrified by last year’s shortage, which left many parents scrambling to find some way to feed their babies.
