President Donald Trump has extended a Jones Act waiver letting foreign ships transport commodities between US ports for 90 more days, but he also narrowed the scope of relief from the law, Bloomberg reported Monday, citing a White House official.
The new limits, which were finalized Monday along with the extension, require case-by-case reviews of individual voyages, the report said, citing the official.
The White House didn't immediately reply to a request for comment from MT Newswires.
