International Longshoremen’s Association

Officials with the International Longshoremen’s Association and United States Maritime Alliance met privately to discuss port automation technology.

The American Apparel & Footwear Association called on port employers and the International Longshoremen’s Association to work out their differences over automation and avoid another strike in January.

As a January deadline nears, a coalition of exporters and importers calls on East Coast port employers and their longshore union to resume bargaining on a new contract.
