In case you want to be upset at big formula this morning. 

Infant formula is a billion-dollar industry with an insular market. Only a handful of companies—led by Abbott, Mead Johnson (a subsidiary of Reckitt), Nestlé, and Perrigo—produce most baby formula sold in the United States. To protect their market share, they've spent millions of dollars in Washington D.C. lobbying for their interests, which include resisting a federally mandated family leave policy.
