I enjoyed Pam Glass' short Inland Insider column about the Jones Act boost in the February issue. I'm glad to see it being strengthened instead of being watered down. I was fortunate to be a Coast Guard senior marine inspector during the time of security rules coming in and the era of working hard to clean up the foreign and domestic vessel fleet. I saw firsthand when companies we might call "shady" try to cut corners and use the cheapest means available to conduct business. That of course is what the Jones Act protects. |
