                     NATIONAL BABY FORMULA SHORTAGE

  (Mr. ROSE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. ROSE. Madam Speaker, as the father of two young boys, I am 
horrified by the shortage of baby formula that is quickly becoming a 
crisis all across this country.
  I represent a mother from Gallatin, Tennessee, with an 8-month-old 
little girl who can tolerate only hypoallergenic baby formula. 
Recently, the mother had to go to six different stores and then call 
multiple others as far away as 3 hours to search for hypoallergenic 
formula for her baby.
  Unfortunately, President Biden has no answers for new mothers and 
fathers struggling to find baby formula. I guess we will have to now 
add the critical shortage of baby formula to the long list of other 
crises our President has caused but, apparently, can do nothing to 
resolve, such as runaway, devastating inflation; massive Federal debt; 
unacceptably high gas prices; a skyrocketing crime rate; and an open 
border that allows millions of illegal immigrants and tons of deadly 
fentanyl into our country.
  Madam Speaker, the President must simply do better.
