Bull. The Jones act is about transporting goods between American ports on American ships. It has nothing to do with this situation. Even if it did, it can be waved in case of national emergencies. It’s amazoing that it has been dredged up to give Oblahblan cover.

The Jones Act can be waived by anyone in the shipping business. My husband is a freight forwarder and has had the Jones Act waived by filing paperwork, Not that difficult.
