Jones Act Retention - Stop the waivers

by tobias cole » August 12, 2026, 9:48 am

Now that fuel supplies are stabilizing........the need for waivers from Jones Act requirements is over.

Time to restore the requirements that cargo and fuel moved between US ports, be transported on US flagged ships with US crews.

We need to support the US Maritime industry, not foreign bottoms and foreign crews.

Preserve US jobs on the Great Lakes and in Atlantic and Pacific ports too.

The last thing I want is for Canadian ships, built in Red China, with non US crews to be transporting fuel and cargo between US Great Lakes ports.

Sorry, American First, not Last.
