Bill introduced to strengthen passenger safety laws on cruise ships

Last week, U.S. Reps. Doris Matsui, D-Caif., and Jeff Fortenberry, R-Neb., introduced the Cruise Passenger Protection Act (CPPA) to strengthen passenger safety on cruise ships. The CPPA would build on the passenger safety measures signed into law through 2010’s Matsui-led Cruise Vessel Security and Safety Act (CVSSA). (workboat.com)
