Womack Cosponsored Bill Supporting Supply Chain Passes House

Statement

December 8, 2021....Congressman Steve Womack (AR-3) today announced the Ocean Shipping Reform Act of 2021, legislation he cosponsored, passed the U.S. House of Representatives with his support. The bill aids our supply chain, increases global market access for Arkansas and American-made products, and establishes reciprocal commerce opportunities to help address America's longstanding trade imbalance with China and other countries.

Congressman Womack said, "Shipping bottlenecks and disruptions have grown to crisis levels. Americans shouldn't pay the price of bad policy. Congress must actively advance reforms to strengthen our economy and movement of goods. This bipartisan legislation delivers increased global market access for Arkansas and American-made products and supports our supply chain and global competitiveness. This is one of many solutions I am working to implement."
