The U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation approved 11 bills, including ocean shipping reform legislation.  All are subject to approval by the full Senate. 

“We also know here, in the Committee, that these ocean shipping companies are making record profits.,” said Sen. Cantwell in her opening statement regarding the importance of passing strong ocean shipping reform legislation. “They have made $150 billion dollars in profits in 2021, and ocean import volume for the first quarter of this year is forecast to increase by more than 30 percent. Our farmers don't want special treatment. They just don't want to be exploited for the sake of record profits.”
