What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

President Donald Trump extended a long-running waiver to a federal law that restricts domestic shipping routes to American ships. This action was taken as the Iran war continues to put pressure on fuel prices. The waiver allows shippers to use foreign tankers for energy products, including gas, diesel, and fertilizer, to help stabilize prices.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The waiver, which was first relaxed to contain fuel prices when the Iran war began, allows Hawaii to expand its shipping options. For example, Hawaii has received shipments of propane that Jones Act vessels cannot carry. However, critics argue that the waiver has had little effect on stabilizing prices.
