U.S. DOT SECRETARY PETE BUTTIGIEG EXPLAINS THE NEW RULE IN AN EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH UNITED SPINAL ASSOCIATION CORRESPONDENT STEVE WRIGHT
Dedicated United Spinal advocates spoke directly to legislators about the importance of accessible air travel at this year’s Roll on Capitol Hill.
Asked if United Spinal and other advocacy groups pushing for this improvement is a blueprint for DOT rule changes that improve accessibility for air and other modes of travel, U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg says,
“Absolutely. We would not be here making these kinds of announcements without not just the passion, but also the expertise that advocacy groups can contribute.
There’s no
way for policymakers to understand how to make good choices without the input
of people who have navigated our transportation systems with a disability.”
