“The Hill” reports a provision banning the toxic chemical bisphenol A (BPA) was left out of a bipartisan food safety compromise unveiled last week by the Senate health panel. Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), the provision’s champion, said she would offer an amendment banning BPA from baby bottles, sippy cups, baby food and infant formula when the food safety bill comes to the Senate floor.
