It looked like business as usual at the port of Seattle and ports across the West Coast on Monday after alleged disruptions impacted work over the weekend.
The International Longshore and Warehouse Union, or ILWU, denied these claims. ILWU president Willie Adams said,"Despite what you are hearing from PMA, West Coast ports are open as we continue to work under our expired collective bargaining agreement." But the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, citing the Wall Street Journal, has said that the union's request would double wages over the life of the contract.
Business leaders locally and nationally are worried about what the impact might be to the supply chain and the 58,000 local jobs in western Washington that the ports support.
