Parents and politicians alike are condemning President Biden for his failure to address the U.S' perpetual baby formula shortage - with one stressed dad saying, "never did I think I would have a problem finding food for my baby in America."

The criticism against Biden comes as the formula shortage has reached crisis levels in recent weeks, with at least 12 states facing 40 percent or higher out-of-stock rates.

As shelves across the country meant to carry formula stay largely empty, parents, such as Russell Bleck, a husband and father in Lexington, Kentucky, have become hopeless to get their hands on the all-important product.

The couple, who endured the notorious Las Vegas concert shooting in 2017 - the most lethal mass shooting by an individual in US history - moved to Kentucky later that year ahead of the birth of their daughter, Aurora, now 3, planning to raise a family.

Speaking to Fox News Digital Friday, Bleck - whose wife, Bre, gave birth to the pair's second child, Asher, six weeks ago - said he finds the shortage "very stressful" and prayed for both the government and media better to handle the crisis.

"The panic of possibly not being able to feed my baby was intense," Bleck, 33, told the outlet in an email interview Friday.

"We first noticed the formula shortage in February. However, it didn't impact us until a couple of weeks ago."

Bleck added: "I saw a friend of ours make a Facebook post [about] not being able to find her brand. She recently had a double mastectomy, so milk production wasn't an option."

Bleck then expressed his own difficulties in finding a formula for his infant son over the past several weeks, unable to find any brand of the product at a local store.

"We were on our last can, so I ran up to the store at 11 pm right before they closed. They were completely out of every brand of formula. I couldn't even switch brands."

Bleck told the outlet that as a father, he had "never even thought" such a lack of baby formula was possible - but has since faced the cold reality of the crisis, which worsened in February after a recall related to the death of an infant saw several top brands stripped from store shelves.

"I jumped into gear and spent all night online,' he told Fox, after failing to track down the product.

Only 'after ordering from 5 different places,' Bleck said, 'one order was fulfilled for one can."

"The rest," the father said, "were either canceled or delayed - even today," he said, referring to the day of the interview, Friday, May 6, 2022.

"These are real problems for real people."
