U.S. Department of Energy Statement on East Coast and Gulf Coast Ports

 The Administration is taking action to monitor and address potential impacts on consumers of labor disputes at East Coast and Gulf Coast ports. The strike at these ports will not impact crude oil, gasoline, natural gas, and other liquid fuel exports and imports, as such operations are handled by other workers. Therefore, the strike will not have any immediate impact on fuel supplies or prices. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), in coordination with the White House and other government agencies, will continue partnering with oil and gas companies as well as electricity generators and utilities to monitor operations and supply chains. As always, DOE will remain vigilant and proactive to maintain reliable, affordable energy. Our Administration supports collective bargaining as the best way for workers and employers to come to a fair agreement, and we encourage all parties to come to the bargaining table and negotiate in good faith—fairly and quickly.
