Cargo preference laws mandate that at least 50 percent of all U.S. government-owned or-financed cargo shipped between American and foreign ports be carried on U.S.-flag ships. Using 1980 shipping data, GAO analyzed the dependency of the U.S.-flag fleet on cargo preference laws, the economic effects of cargo preference, and the effect of eliminating the cargo preference requirement for the Public Law No. 480 Food for Peace program.
