This legislation, known as the "Improving Newborn Formula Access for a Nutritious Tomorrow Act of 2025" or the "INFANT Act of 2025," seeks to significantly alter the competitive bidding framework for infant formula manufacturers within the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) . Its primary goal is to amend the Child Nutrition Act of 1966 to promote greater flexibility and competition in formula procurement. Specifically, the bill redefines "competitive bidding" to require the selection of two manufacturers offering the lowest prices for infant formula, rather than the current practice of selecting a single primary manufacturer. Under the revised process, one manufacturer can be designated as primary and the other as secondary, allowing for multiple contracts to be awarded. This change aims to broaden the supply base and potentially improve access to infant formula for WIC participants.
