In a rare display of unity, Republicans and Democrats are joining forces to defend the Jones Act, a crucial legislation that promotes a strong and reliable American maritime base. As leaders of the Subcommittee on Coast Guard and Maritime Transportation, we are committed to fostering a thriving maritime industry, creating jobs, and ensuring national security through effective maritime transportation. With the Jones Act, we can boost economic growth, enhance maritime trade, and maintain our competitive edge in the global market. By supporting this legislation, we are investing in a brighter future for American maritime commerce and the nation as a whole, with key terms like maritime law, maritime trade, and coast guard playing a vital role.
