Plain-English Summary

The CARGO Act would establish new health and safety standards for cargo handling and transportation, likely requiring workers and companies in the shipping and logistics industries to follow stricter protocols to prevent injuries and contamination. The bill aims to protect both cargo workers and the public by ensuring that goods are handled, stored, and transported safely throughout the supply chain. This would affect warehouse workers, truck drivers, shipping companies, and potentially consumers who rely on these services.
