Duckworth, Author of the Friendly Airports for Mothers Act, Visits Newly Installed Lactation Pod at O’Hare

Today at O’Hare International Airport, U.S. Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) visited one of the facility’s vacant newly-installed and ADA-accessible lactation pods that help make expressing breastmilk and pumping less complicated for traveling nursing parents. During her visit to the Mamava-developed pod that helps the travel hub comply with her Friendly Airports for Mothers (FAM) Act, Duckworth highlighted the impact of her FAM Act, as well as her commitment to continue making life easier for working parents and their children. She was joined by Chicago Department of Aviation Commissioner Jamie L. Rhee.
