Podcast appearances and mentions of Herbert A Stiefel

Why are Puerto Ricans buying liquid natural gas from the Russkies? Why are Hawaiian ranchers transporting cattle to the mainland with planes? Why is an Alaskan seafood company giving tons of fish a jaunt on 100 feet of rail track located entirely inside a Canadian port? To answer these absurd questions, the guys were thrilled to be joined by Colin Grabow, a policy analyst at the Cato Institute's Herbert A. Stiefel Center for Trade Policy Studies and one of the authors of The Case Against the Jones Act. Together they discuss the Jones Act's origins, its many harms, why it remains in place, and beyond #EndTheJonesAct, what can be done about it? If you would like to learn more, Colin and his primarily anti-Jones Act thoughts can be found on Twitter @cpgrabow.
