At the stroke of midnight on October 1, the International Longshoremen’s Association (ILA) began its strike, effectively shutting down the ports from Maine to Texas. This followed a disappointing negotiation process with the United States Maritime Alliance (USMX), the group representing the ports, as both sides were unable to agree on a new master contract. For months, the ILA and USMX exchanged statements back-and-forth accusing each other of refusing to negotiate in good faith and declining to meaningfully revise their respective offers. This remains unchanged even as we sit three days into a strike, with the American people and small businesses about to start feeling the pain.
