Watch: Rep. DeLauro praises Buttigieg’s plan to solve ‘gender inequity’ by promoting female crash test dummies

Rep. Rosa DeLauro, D-Conn., turned heads Thursday by stressing the need for "female dummies" in car crash testing during a congressional hearing.

During the House Appropriations Committee hearing on the Department of Transportation budget, DeLauro used her time to praise Transportation Secretary Pete Butigieg’s initiatives to rectify the "gender inequity" among crash victims.

DeLauro singled out the "use of female dummies" for roadway crash testing as one of these Buttigieg initiatives she supports.
