Bill > S3216

This bill, the WIC Healthy Beginnings Act of 2021, amends the Child Nutrition Act of 1966 to require the Secretary of Agriculture to establish a publicly available database of bid solicitations for infant formula under the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC). The bill requires state agencies to submit information about their bid solicitations, such as the title, website, contact information, and bid due date, to the Secretary within 5 business days, and the Secretary must then publish this information on the database within 5 days. The bill also provides guidance for implementation and limits liability for the state, state agencies, and the federal government.
