Fourth Seacoast Issue May Be Approved
Washington AP reports a broad maritime bill near passage aims to transform the Great Lakes into a fourth major seacoast. It would bolster the merchant fleet, extend tax breaks, and create a fund to finance new ships, with officials calling it a turning point for lake shipping and jobs. Mondale predicts the plan will boost Great Lakes commerce by freeing tax credits and redirecting interest owed to the Treasury to ship construction.
