State should partner with ports and agriculture to spur economic recovery
State lawmakers need to make agriculture and ports a centerpiece of economic recovery. When the virus is contained and we need to jump start the economy, agriculture- and port-related businesses will be fired up and ready to go.

New analysis reveals that the “higher cost of doing business in the States of California and Washington” was responsible for the loss of cargo business. Learn more. #ProtectWestCoastPorts
“The continuing loss of market share for West Coast ports, particularly Los Angeles and Long Beach, will cause economic ripples that start at the ports, move across Southern California and then affect the entire state, with the loss of good paying logistics jobs,” said John McLaurin, President of PMSA.
#DYK: West Coast marine terminals have spent billions to become the most environmentally friendly ports in the world. But the added cost of state mandates currently under consideration, will cause even more cargo, jobs, and businesses to move to out of state ports. #ProtectWestCoastPorts
The West Coast ports’ eroding market share represents a loss of 5.6 million containers last year, compared to 2006 figures. The loss of containers = an approximate loss of between 100,000 to 150,000 jobs in the region. #ProtectWestCoastPorts #SaveJobs
