Abstract This report examines the potential effects of short sea shipping (SSS) development on the Texas transportation system. The project region includes Texas, Mexico, and Central America. In the international arena, the most likely prospects are for containerized shipments using small container ships. In the domestic arena, the most likely prospects are for coastwise shipments using modified offshore service vessels or articulated tug/barges. Only three Texas ports handle containers consistently (Houston accounts for 95% of the total), and three more handle containers sporadically. -

Note this excerpt, seldom surpassed in beauty of thought and diction, from his address to Governor Stevens: Why should I mourn at the untimely fate of my people? Tribe follows tribe, and nation follows nation, like the waves of the sea. It is the order of nature and regret is useless. Your time of decay may be distant — but it will surely come, for even the White Man whose God walked and talked with him as friend with friend cannot be exempt from the common destiny. We may be brothers after all. Let the White Man be just and deal kindly with my people, for the dead are not powerless. Dead — I say? There is no death. Only a change of worlds.

Testimony of Mr. Joseph H. Pyne Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Kirby Corporation Representing the American Maritime Partnership on the Role of U.S
Testimony of Mr. Joseph H. Pyne Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Kirby Corporation Representing the American Maritime Partnership On the Role of U.S. Ships and Mariners Before the Subcommittee on Coast Guard and Maritime Transportation of the House Transportation & Infrastructure Committee U.S. House of Representatives Washington, DC May 21, 2013 Mr. Chairman and Members of the Committee: Good morning. My name is Joe Pyne, and I am the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Kirby Corporation, the nation’s largest inland and coastal tank barge operator. Kirby has revenues of approximately $2.5 billion per year and has a market capitalization of approximately $4.5 billion. We employ some 4,600 Americans and operate over 1,300 Jones Act vessels. Kirby has been in the marine transportation business since 1969. I am pleased to appear before you today on behalf of the American Maritime Partnership (AMP) to stress the importance of the domestic U.S.-flag fleet and the coastwise laws to our U.S. transportation system and the role that they play in meeting the economic, homeland, and national security needs of the United States. Background on the American Maritime Partnership and Kirby Corporation The American Maritime Partnership is the most broad-based coalition ever assembled to represent the domestic maritime industry. It serves as the voice of the U.S. domestic maritime industry. The organization’s 450-plus members span the country and its territories and include vessel owners and operators, shipboard and shoreside labor, shipbuilders and repair yards, equipment manufacturers and vendors, dredging and marine construction contractors, trade associations, other coalitions, pro-defense groups, and companies and organizations in other modes of domestic transportation. -
April 2, 2020 Donald J. Trump President of the United States 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, D.C
April 2, 2020 Donald J. Trump President of the United States 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear President Trump: We recently learned that you will be meeting tomorrow with certain chief executive officers from the oil and gas industry and that some of those officials may ask you to waive the Jones Act. We write to strongly oppose any Jones Act waiver. The American domestic maritime industry produces 650,000 jobs nationwide that have been designated by the Department of Homeland Security as part of the essential critical infrastructure workforce. Americans have radically cut back on driving and flying, reducing demand for petroleum products, which reduces the need to ship petroleum products in our domestic markets. As a result, there is a more-than-ample supply of U.S. vessel capacity available to transport oil within the United States. A Jones Act waiver in these circumstances – replacing American mariners and American ships with foreign mariners and foreign ships in our home waters – is unnecessary and contrary to our collective need to come together as a nation to fight this virus. Waiving the Jones Act means outsourcing American maritime jobs to foreign shipping companies that do not pay U.S. taxes. Many of the foreign vessels would have been made in China and are operated with foreign crews who do not pay U.S. taxes and cannot be counted on to go into harm’s way for America’s interests. Those foreign ships would displace modern American vessels made in Pennsylvania, Mississippi, Wisconsin, California, Florida and elsewhere in America.
