On Friday, March 2 NAEGA joined 115 state and federal trade association in a letter to the International Longshoreman’s Association and the United States Maritime Alliance encouraging both parties to return to the table as soon as possible and resume negotiations on a labor contract for West Coast ports. The letter notes that a contract extension will provide supply chain stakeholders with the certainty they need for their operations and help avoid supply chain disruptions and delays that arose out of previous contract negotiations. When talks are put on hold it causes great uncertainty, shifts in logistical plans and even economic damage.
A copy of the letter can be found here.
