President Donald Trump has extended the Jones Act waiver, allowing for foreign ships to transport goods between U.S. ports as part of the administration’s ongoing efforts to curb fuel costs.
The president issued a 90-day extension of the Jones Act waiver on Friday, with the current waiver set to expire in two days. The Jones Act is a law that requires all goods transported between U.S. ports to be moved by ships that are U.S.-built, flagged, and crewed.
