The Neglected Port Preference Clause and the Jones Act
The Yale Law Journal ( IF 4.986 ) Pub Date : 2022-11-30
Sam Heavenrich

The Constitution’s Port Preference Clause restricts Congress’s ability to favor “the Ports of one State over those of another.” This Note argues that the Jones Act, which prohibits foreign vessels from transporting goods between U.S. ports, violates the Clause by favoring West Coast ports over those of Alaska and Hawaii.

被忽视港口优先条款和琼斯法案

宪法的港口偏好条款限制了国会“偏爱一州港口而不是另一州港口”的能力。本说明认为,禁止外国船只在美国港口之间运输货物的琼斯法案违反了该条款,因为它偏向于西海岸的港口,而不是阿拉斯加和夏威夷的港口。
