“The bill accomplishes preservation of the committee carrier system, which is important to the carriers, but it also injects a very healthy and significant dose of flexibility, of competitive opportunity into the carrier and shipper relationship. That was the aim of my bill. I am pleased to see we are taking that tack in this legislation. It is what will be good for ocean shipping. That is the complete quote of my good friend, and I think it is important to put it in the Record so the Record is clear.”
