The failing NY Times Fake News story today about breast feeding must be called out. The U.S. strongly supports breast feeding but we don’t believe women should be denied access to formula. Many women need this option because of malnutrition and poverty.

In many parts of the world infant formula is dangerous because mothers don’t have access to clean water to mix it with. Breast feeding more sanitary while formula can lead to fatal dysentery https://t.co/rZFFmpw86W
