The Jones Act requires that cabotage within the US happen on US-built and US-flagged vessels. Will it be repealed or significantly loosened with respect to this provision by 2028-01-21?

At a minimum, this requires a process by which a non-US-built vessel could transport goods directly between US ports.

I will not trade on this question until there has been time to clarify resolution criteria.
