Hassett praised the exemptions in the Jones Act and hinted that follow-up measures will be introduced if necessary.

Kevin Hassett, Director of the National Economic Council at the White House, stated that the temporary exemption from the Jones Act is one of the measures the Trump administration is taking to address rising oil prices. Hassett said that implementing the exemption policy under the Jones Act is a means for the U.S. to alleviate the price pressure faced by the public. He added, "If necessary, we will continue to take similar measures."
