The purpose of this legislation is to create consistent national standards for preterm infant formula. It aims to ensure that the formula available for premature and low-birth-weight infants meets specific safety and quality requirements across the United States. Key provisions of the legislation include a mandate for the Secretary of Health and Human Services to conduct a study on the availability and regulation of preterm infant formula. This study will examine existing federal and state laws related to the formula's design, manufacturing, labeling, and safety.
