The US is falling behind in port efficiency due to resistance from unions to adopt new technologies, says Neil Bradley, Executive VP at the US Chamber of Commerce. He stresses the need for port modernization through automation to reduce costs and increase productivity, citing the lack of a single US port in the top 50 global rankings. With the rise of digital transformation and logistics automation, it's crucial for US ports to adapt and innovate to remain competitive in the global trade landscape, ensuring economic growth and job creation.
