As part of our #WeAreTheJonesAct series, we’re amplifying voices from across our membership that show the real-world consequences of the Administration’s reckless Jones Act waiver.
Following the waiver’s renewal, AWO member McAllister Towing produced this video to share everything domestic maritime does for our economy, military, and nation at large — all made possible by the Jones Act.
For McAllister, and all of our members, the Jones Act provides stability—safeguarding jobs, wages, and the long-term strength of America’s domestic maritime workforce. This isn’t abstract. It’s livelihoods, families, and careers built on our waterways.
