Klochubar and Thune introduce Ocean Shipping Reform Act in the Senate

The main objectives of the bill, according to Klochubar and Thune, is to update federal regulations for the global shipping industry, adding that the bill “would level the playing field for American exporters by making it harder for ocean carriers to unreasonably refuse goods ready to export at ports, and it would give the Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) greater rulemaking authority to regulate harmful practices by carriers.”
