Protect Infant Formula from Contamination Act

This bill requires infant formula manufacturers to test products for contamination and report positive results to the FDA within 24 hours, regardless of whether the product has left the facility. Manufacturers must also isolate affected products, cease distribution if required, and provide test results to the FDA. The FDA must respond to notifications within 72 hours, verify corrective actions within 90 days, and issue annual reports on supply chain data and safety improvements. These changes directly affect manufacturers and the FDA, aiming to prevent contamination events and improve infant formula safety and supply transparency.
