New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill warns ports against accepting Russian diesel
Sherrill says importing the fuel would violate a 2022 ban and could lead to civil and criminal charges.
TLDR
Sherrill urged New Jersey port and terminal operators to turn away tankers carrying Russian diesel and pledged to use state authority to keep the shipments out. She argues that a temporary Treasury license allowing Russian diesel imports conflicts with a 2022 congressional ban on Russian oil products. A Trump administration official says the license complies with applicable law. Sherrill says at least one tanker may be headed for New Jersey.
