Under the guise of connecting America’s railroads more efficiently, the proposed UP-NS merger will squeeze out competition, destabilize the supply chain, and raise costs for consumers. America deserves better.

ACD supports the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to overturn tariffs imposed under IEEPA.

These tariffs created uncertainty and cost burdens for chemical distributors—many small businesses—disrupting the flow of essential products that support Americans’ health, safety, and economic growth.

Today, ACD sent a letter to @POTUS urging the Administration to support the renewal of the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) Trade Program in Congress.

In the letter, @EricR_ACD highlighted the vital role the GSP program plays in helping U.S. small businesses remain competitive. Read more below.

Chemical distributors want FMC to investigate ocean carriers' surcharges https://t.co/yRil6QrMGW

[FMC @FMC_gov]

Prohibition on Retaliation Against Shippers, Ocean Transportation Intermediaries, and Motor Carriers - https://t.co/eZYADhq7uy

[Alliance for Chemical Distribution @ACD_chem]

Ocean carriers must be held accountable for excessive surcharges imposed on U.S. shippers, even after the recent port strike ended. ACD calls on the FMC to investigate these charges to ensure they aren’t used to unfairly profit at the expense of shippers. Read more below.

The @FMC_gov denies a petition to delay implementation of their D&D rulemaking. As the Commission wisely points out this has already been in effect for 6 months. Flipping a switch to make it no longer effective then later making re-effective would be counterproductive! #Shipping

[Eric R. Byer @EricR_ACD]

Well done @FMC_gov -- https://t.co/vvgGWXMWSE

Everyday the Senate fails to pass bipartisan #CFATS reauthorization, it is putting chemical facilities & our communities at unnecessary risk. A 2-year reauthorization passed the House by a 409-1 vote. It’s time for @SenateDems & @SenateGOP to act!

Today, ACD member @Hawkins1938 testified before the Surface Transportation Board about critical trends in the rail industry, including poor service, shifting liability, and rising insurance requirements.

American consumers and businesses depend on our ports to move critical chemical products. A strike at top U.S. ports would add burdens to an already strained supply chain. ACD urges ILA and USMX to conduct good faith negotiations to prevent a labor strike.

"Urging" is not enough.

[Alliance for Chemical Distribution @ACD_chem]

A labor strike at East and Gulf Coast ports poses significant risks to the timely delivery of critical goods.

Given current shipping challenges impacting our supply chain, we must do everything we can to prevent disruptions at our ports.
