Booming imports and the effects of COVID-19 are straining container supply chains while causing transportation rates to surge and port congestion get worse.

This fireside chat features Federal Maritime Commissioner Carl Bentzel in a discussion about the U.S. Federal Maritime Commission's role in this unprecedented confluence of events and the options the agency has to deal with it.
