Our Mission
The USA Shipbuilding Coalition is a labor-management partnership focused on advancing concrete actions to spur investment in and revitalization of America’s shipbuilding capacity, enhance the strength and utilization of domestic supply chains and ensure that our nation can build, repair, maintain and man the vessels needed to restore U.S. maritime capabilities.
The USA Shipbuilding Coalition launched its first ad highlighting the need to invest in American shipbuilding to protect our national and economic security. The ad depicts how China’s illegal and predatory trade practices have come at the expense of the American shipbuilding industry, which once dominated the world, and calls on Congress to take action to restore this critical industry, create American jobs, and protect our shores.
“America Can't Make What The Military Needs”
The New York Times Editorial Board highlights the critical state of our nation’s shipbuilding capabilities and the need to rebuild our defense industrial base. The New York Times urging action should serve as a wake-up call to politicians and policy leaders to act before it’s too late.
