“Mr. Speaker, H.R. 248, the Baby Changing on Board Act is effective, bipartisan legislation intended to help parents better care for their children when traveling. The bill requires Amtrak to install baby changing tables in all ADA-accessible restrooms on trains owned by Amtrak. These facilities are common on other transportation modes, including airlines. They are likewise necessary on intercity passenger rails. The bipartisan bill is a long, overdue improvement to Amtrak service. Mr. Speaker, I urge support of this legislation, and I reserve the balance of my time.”
