America\u2019s maritime industry and shipbuilding capacity have dangerously lagged behind over the years, allowing China to get ahead and pose a serious threat over the oceans. Today\u2019s action by the Trump administration shows they see the same threat and the urgent need to reverse course to strengthen our national security and grow our economy. We\u2019re also encouraged that many of the provisions in the executive order mirror parts of our SHIPS for America Act.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will reintroduce the SHIPS for America Act with renewed support in the coming weeks to provide the Congressional authorizations needed to truly revitalize the American shipbuilding and maritime industries, and work with the administration to get it passed. That\u2019s how we\u2019ll put Americans to work building more oceangoing ships and flying the American flag on merchant vessels to reclaim America\u2019s global maritime leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marinelog.com\/news\/ships-for-america-act-will-support-for-trump-executive-order\/\">SHIPS for America Act will support Trump executive order<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marinelog.com\/\">Marine Log<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p> \t<BR><br \/>\n <BR><\/BR><br \/>\n    Marine Log Staff<br \/>\n \t<BR><br \/>\n<BR><\/BR><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.marinelog.com\/news\/ships-for-america-act-will-support-for-trump-executive-order\/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=ships-for-america-act-will-support-for-trump-executive-order\">Go to marinelog<\/a><br \/>\n \t<BR><br \/>\n <BR><\/BR><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SHIPS for America Act will support Trump executive order President Trump\u2019s executive order on Restoring America\u2019s Maritime Dominance calls for \u201csecuring consistent, predictable, and durable federal funding\u201d for maritime programs.
