Our Mission:
Securing America Through U.S.-Flag Shipping

Across the country, Americans are rediscovering something that has always been true: strong supply chains, a resilient economy, and national security all depend on a strong American maritime industry.

For more than a century, American ships and American mariners have carried the cargo that powers our economy and supports our nation in times of need. But today, only a small share of U.S. trade moves on U.S.-flag vessels.

At a time when supply chain security and economic resilience have become national priorities, there is a renewed opportunity to strengthen the American maritime industry, and to recognize the companies helping lead that effort.
