Container ships continue to clog up California’s coast despite the Biden administration’s efforts to alleviate the supply chain crisis.

With supply chain issues growing and the holiday season approaching, California ports have become even more clogged with vessels. Several vessels have been forced to sit outside the port, waiting for their chance to unload.

Maritime nonprofit organization Marine Exchange reported on Tuesday that a record 111 container ships were in the waters surrounding Los Angeles and Long Beach ports. Thirty of the vessels were docked in port and being unloaded, while 81 vessels were anchored or loitering. The previous record had been 108 container ships on Oct. 21.

President Joe Biden met with several leaders involved in the supply chain process on Wednesday. In a video posted Wednesday morning, Biden claimed that things are improving and people should not be worried about the coming holidays.

Despite Biden’s statements, the ports have continued to struggle. Los Angeles’s and Long Beach’s docking ports have been consistently packed despite a recently passed edict from the White House ordering the ports to unload container ships 24/7. The two ports account for an estimated 40% of all shipping containers entering the United States.

Local terminal operators report that the edict will do little to help ease the issues at hand.

Truckers report that the crane operators handling the offloading of containers are worsening conditions by wasting time and taking long breaks, which often delays the unloading process by a significant margin.

This has been exacerbated by a lack of workers and truck drivers to take the products to their intended locations, combined with a growing demand for products from consumers.
