Some may, perhaps, but the vast majority is not. Ports in Long Beach, for example, are stacked high and filled with containers waiting for delivery. Ships in anchor still waiting to be unloaded.
This problem was self-created by California by 2 things, as the OP posted: 1) Cali passed a Bill that outlaws any truck older than 2011, and 2) passed another Bill that excludes Owner/Operator truckers which make up the majority of trucking out there. Ergo, truckers are either in violation because of rigs or because they arent part of a company/union. THAT is the main reason things are backing up in Cali ports. There are way more containers waiting to go than there are trucks/drivers to get them...so they sit.
It gets offloaded at non union Mexican ports,railed then re loaded.bush spent your tax dollars on that deal and no doubt owns a chunk
