Emily Babu lost her son Jared and his wife, Mercy, on the plane. She has worked on Illinois legislation to make Boeing accountable.

WHAT: Illinois needs to pass HB 4968, which will hold companies, including Boeing, responsible for punitive damages when they cause people to die. Boeing must be held responsible for the deaths aboard the 737 Max. Passing HB 4968 will help to push Boeing and other manufacturers of consumer products to make them safe.

Milleron's daughter, Samya, was one of 157 people who died because the Boeing 737 Max 8 they were flying on was unsafe — and should never have been allowed into service. Their deaths came after the loss of Lion Air Flight 610, another 737 Max that crashed minutes after takeoff, killing all 189 passengers and crew members.

A month after the Indonesian crash, the Sangeeta Suneja,mother of the Lion Air pilot, Captain Bhavye Suneja, raised an alarm, that no Boeing 737 MAX training was imparted to the pilots, yet Boeing or FAA did nothing, and the callousness lead to second crash, wasting the sacrifice of Lion aircrew and passengers.

Boeing, headquartered in Chicago, built a defective plane, concealed problems (https://www.nytimes.com/2021/12/01/books/review/peter-rob...) with the 737 Max from the Federal Aviation Administration and pilots, and deliberately moved forward with a flawed design. All while spending company profits to boost stock prices and executive pay.
