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. -

The U.S. maritime industry publicly recognized the merchant mariners responsible for safe ship operations at the Annual Safety Awards Luncheon held at the Hilton Riverside Hotel on June 8, 2016. Nearly Two Hundred (200) people, representing 80 companies, attended the annual industry-sponsored event. The Chamber of Shipping of America (CSA) announces the results of the 2015 Jones F. Devlin Awards. These awards are given to the men and women manning vessels that have operated for at least two years without a seafarer involved in a lost-time injury. Kathy Metcalf, CSA President said: “We have been holding these annual award ceremonies since 1958. This was the Fifty-eighth Anniversary of the program. For that initial year, we honored six vessels having a total of twelve years operation with no lost-time incidents. This year, awards were conferred on 1522 vessels that operated 10,084 years without a lost-time incident. This extraordinary record is directly attributable to the professionalism of our seafarers and the dedication of shore-based company personnel to safe operation.
