Valadao, the Ocean Shipping Reform Act of 2021, a bipartisan piece of legislation introduced by Representative Dusty Johnson (R-SD) and Representative John Garamendi (D-CA), passed the House. The bill will implement new shipping regulations and reforms that will ensure fair trade and shipping practices between countries, as well as protect domestic exporters from punitive trade practices by global partners.
