Operative words

The men and women of The Port of Philadelphia have been doing an extraordinary job supporting the USA's vital supply chains for food, medical supplies, forest products, and other essential goods throughout the Coronavirus pandemic. Our longshore workers have been on the frontlines... In a similar way, we salute our partners in logistics - truckers, warehouse workers, freight forwarders, railroaders, and others in supply chain services - who keep the nation provisioned, either out on site or working from home.... [In accordance with] Governor Wolf's directives, our staff are diligently working remotely.
