Port strike resolved … now what?; how tariffs work; snowmageddon  | WHAT THE TRUCK?!?

On Episode 790 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, Dooner and Dredging Contractors of America’s William Doyle spill the tea on the real talk behind the ILA-USMX contract, what ratification means and how tariffs work.

National Association of Waterfront Employers President and former Federal Maritime Commissioner Carl Bentzel takes a look at the deal between the International Longshoremen’s Association and the United States Maritime Alliance from the labor perspective. What does this mean for East Coast and West Coast port unions and labor moving forward?

Plus, trucking gets snowed out; Transportation companies mobilize to support LA fire relief efforts; Lego ports; and National Championship predictions.
