Unfortunately, the headline is misleading. They're not getting rid of toxic metals in foods altogether, but only reducing them incrementally over the next few years "to levels as low as is reasonably achievable.” It seems like this should've been acted on a long time ago.

"The Baby Food Safety Act of 2021 would set maximum levels of inorganic arsenic, lead, cadmium and mercury in baby food and cereal that manufacturers would have to meet within one year."

"The bill requires levels to be lowered further within two years through U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) guidance, and three years through regulation. It mandates manufacturers test final products – not just ingredients – for toxic heavy metals and post results online."
