Bottles and Breastfeeding Equipment Screening Enhancement Act

This bill requires Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and private security personnel to handle breast milk, baby formula, and related cooling items (like ice packs) with proper hygiene during airport security screenings. It mandates that TSA issue updated hygiene guidelines within 90 days (and every five years) after enactment, developed with maternal health organizations, to minimize contamination risks. The bill also requires a Department of Homeland Security Inspector General audit within one year to assess compliance and evaluate how screening technologies impact the handling of these items. The policy directly affects traveling parents and caregivers transporting infant essentials.
