Grateful to our bipartisan Congressional delegation for taking the time to see the critical work happening on the ground and to hear directly from industry leaders about what’s needed to strengthen U.S. maritime competitiveness. Partnerships like these are essential as we work together to build a more resilient supply chain, support American jobs, and advance the future of our nation’s ports. #MaritimeExcellence
We were honored to host a bipartisan Congressional delegation at the Port of Baltimore’s Seagirt Marine Terminal for an in-depth tour and policy briefing with Ports America Chesapeake. We extend our deepest appreciation to Ranking Member Rep. Rick Larsen (D-WA-2), Ranking Member Rep. Salud Carbajal (D-CA-24), Rep. Nick Begich (R-AK-At Large), and Rep. Sarah Elfreth (D-MD-3) for spending the afternoon on the terminal, seeing firsthand how America’s marine terminal operators keep our supply chain moving. Our discussions focused on strengthening U.S. competitiveness, rebuilding the domestic maritime industrial base, and ensuring long-term supply chain resilience. During the tour, we had the opportunity to outline NAWE’s top federal priorities—including modernizing the Capital Construction Fund, establishing a Maritime Trust Fund, and building a stronger foundation for U.S. maritime manufacturing. We’re grateful to our industry leaders who joined the briefing, Matthew Leech, Mark Schmidt, Kerry Doyle and Texas Howard IV. Their insights on infrastructure investment, terminal operations, breakbulk competitiveness, and opportunities to revitalize U.S. shipbuilding and maritime equipment manufacturing were invaluable. NAWE appreciates the continued engagement from Members of Congress as we work together to advance policies that support a resilient supply chain, strong national security, and globally competitive U.S. ports.

No one fully understands all the work that goes on behind the scenes to get any and all product on the shelves. It’s truly fascinating learning it all for the first time. From maintenance-delivery there is so much in between. This is a great passion of mine; Therefore seeing so many people involved and learning the process brings me joy!
