Rep. Ed Case urges the President to extend the Jones Act waiver for energy shipments to Hawaii amid ongoing supply disruptions.
Quiver AI Summary
Representative Case requests extension of Jones Act waiver: U.S. Congressman Ed Case has called on President Trump to extend the current waiver of the Jones Act, citing significant global shipping disruptions and rising energy costs in Hawai‘i due to the ongoing Iran War. The waiver, set to expire soon, allows for international shipping of critical fuels to the state.
Concerns over energy supply and costs: Case highlighted that without the waiver, Hawai‘i could face fuel supply interruptions and increased prices, stating, “Hawai‘i is one of the most isolated parts of our country” and depends heavily on maritime imports. He noted the limited availability of U.S.-flagged vessels under the Jones Act exacerbates these issues.
Legislation and military implications: The Congressman emphasized the importance of extending the waiver for military readiness in the region, mentioning that both civilian and military personnel in Hawai‘i are affected by rising energy costs. He has previously introduced legislation aimed at reforming the Jones Act to increase shipping competition.
