Direct the FAA to issue rules requiring airlines to explicitly include strollers in their liability contracts and to handle them with care.
Occurrences
Evidence
Representative Brittany Pettersen and Representative Ryan Mackenzie introduced a bipartisan bill that would direct the FAA to issue new rules requiring airlines to explicitly include strollers in their liability contract during transit and to handle them with care. The release says the bill would also set a liability standard of up to $2,175 for damaged strollers.
Assessments
Brittany Pettersen materially advanced the promise during her current House term by introducing bipartisan federal legislation on April 30, 2026 that would direct the FAA to require airlines to include strollers in liability contracts and handle them with care. However, the evidence only shows bill introduction, not enactment or a final FAA rule. Because the promised regulatory outcome has not yet been shown to be completed, the correct status is unresolved, with credit for a serious legislative effort.
