From Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg's exit interview in the NYT:
In what ways did flying with your own young children open your eyes to the gaps in protections for parents?
Hugely. Chasten, my husband, and I are still juggling with the gear, the stroller and the car seats, just like everybody else. It was part of why we were motivated to do our part to make it a little easier with things like the fee-free family seating, and some of the information we put up on our website about how the different airlines handle flying with kids.
We're motivated too, Pete. We hope to see your family soon.
