• The Port of Seattle is one of the top maritime ports in North America that U.S. ag exporters rely on to ship their produce and grain.

But that is EXPORTS.

I suppose that doesn't mean, however, that the food is going to go to Americans.

The Puget Sound area ports most definitely ship megatons of grain.

Perhaps there was a merger of labor unions but I thought the men and women who loaded and unloaded grain onto and from ships in the Puget Sound area had their own seperate union and not part of the Longshoremen’s union.
