Protecting access to infant formula and supplemental foods during emergencies and supply chain disruptions. It gives the Secretary of Agriculture new waiver powers, requires infant formula contracts to include recall remedies, and mandates coordination with the Department of Health and Human Services. - Families: Families with infants can get more flexible formula access during shortages. Programs may allow brand substitutions, waive some medical-documentation rules for noncontract formula, and lift monthly formula limits when needed. - State agencies and vendors: State agencies can get temporary waivers of administrative rules to keep benefits flowing. Waivers may run up to 45 days and can be renewed with 15 days notice. The Secretary must notify affected States and publish waiver determinations. - Manufacturers and federal coordination: Infant formula cost containment contracts must include remedies for recalls and require manufacturers to follow those contract terms during a recall.

Designs must feature Tubman on at least one obverse and include standard inscriptions. The Mint will sell coins in uncirculated and proof qualities and set prices that cover face value, a surcharge, and production costs. Surcharges of $35, $10, and $5 go equally to the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center and The Harriet Tubman Home, Inc. The law requires that issuing these coins not impose any net cost on the U.S. government.
