Biden: “Brain food for the border, not Louisiana”

Sky and Storm were born four weeks early. The twins arrived weighing 5 pounds, 3 ounces and spent their first two weeks in the NICU. Unfortunately, due to the infant formula crisis, their mother had to choose which of her premature babies received formula while the other suffered. What a terrible position this Sorento family found themselves in! What’s worse: they were not alone. The stories in Louisiana have been heartbreaking. One mom could not find the rare product required for her baby’s specific dietary needs, while some mothers were forced to rely on members of their community to scour grocery store aisles and digital marketplaces. Despite record-high fuel prices, parents drove hours away from home to source formula or pay price gougers hundreds of dollars for a few cans that lasted only a week or two. And no one has been hit harder than our neighbors who rely on WIC to feed their children.
