West Coast port labor dispute causes closures and disruptions.

Two container terminals at the Port of Long Beach were closed on Monday, with at least one to be closed on Tuesday, due to operational needs or intentional slowdowns by workers as labor negotiations continue. The closures could have a significant impact on cargo movement, with retailers and other businesses calling on the Biden administration to intervene in the negotiations.
