Biden's policies will 'very quickly' cause supply chain issues after bridge collapse: Rep. Van Drew

Rep. Jeff Van Drew, R-N.J., warned that the Francis Scott Key Bridge disaster could "very quickly" cause major supply chain problems thanks to President Biden's policies.

Maryland officials have closed the Port of Baltimore while recovery efforts are underway in the Patapsco River where the bridge fell. Ships will be unable to enter or exit the port until the mangled heap of steel debris from the bridge is cleared from the channel.

Van Drew, who sits on the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, said companies that rely on the port to ship and receive goods will soon have problems with their inventories.

"It is so important that we realize that the inventories that companies have are not the same inventories they used to have before Joe Biden. Because inflation is so high, it's problematic for them to hold that many goods in one location," Van Drew explained. "So, we're going to very quickly have problems with the supply chain."
