Trump considers extending Jones Act waiver issued during Iran war to ease domestic oil shipping
President Trump is weighing an extension of a 60-day Jones Act waiver he issued on March 18 in response to rising fuel prices from the Iran war. Since the waiver took effect, 40 foreign-flagged tankers have delivered roughly 9 million barrels of oil between U.S. ports, increasing the domestic fleet by 70%. No final decision has been made, according to White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers.
