'President López Obrador’s scheme to seize Vulcan’s deep-water port would be a flagrant expropriation of a lawfully permitted, U.S.-owned operation.'
Published: Sep. 23, 2024, 5:32 p.m.Alabama U.S. Senators Tommy Tuberville and Katie Britt are among six members of the body who have introduced a bill that would impose penalties on Mexico if it attempts to profit from seizing a port facility owned by Birmingham-based Vulcan Materials Co.
The bill would prohibit any vessel that had used a port, land, or infrastructure illegally seized from a U.S. entity by a foreign nation in the Western hemisphere from entering a U.S. port. President López Obrador’s scheme to seize Vulcan’s deep-water port would be a flagrant expropriation of a lawfully permitted, U.S.-owned operation. Our bipartisan Defending American Property Abroad Act makes it clear that we’ll meet his illegal actions with crushing consequences.
