Pelosi says indictment may be filed over baby formula shortage that was sparked partly by Abbott recall
Parents across the country have beenbecause of a shortage sparked by supply chain issues and exacerbated by a recall of formulas made at an Abbott Laboratories plant in Michigan. Abbott issued the recall in February, amid an FDA investigation into Cronobacter sakazakii infections among four babies who reportedly consumed formula made there. All four were hospitalized, and Cronobacter may have contributed to two babies’ death, according to the FDA.
Pelosi’s comments came after Rep. Rosa DeLauro, the Democratic chair of the House Appropriations Committee, slammed Abbott and criticized the FDA over the issue during the news conference Tuesday. Abbott is one of only a handful of companies that produce the vast majority of the U.S. formula supply, so their recall wiped out a large segment of the market.
The House is expected to take up the emergency spending measure later this week before lawmakers head back to their congressional districts for the next two weeks. The bill would also need approval in an evenly divided Senate, where it will need support from at least 10 Republicans before it could be signed into law.It’s unclear where Republicans stand on the bill. Rep. Kay Granger, the ranking Republican on the House Appropriations Committee, said they need more details.
