Despite this progress, the SS United States remains in peril because the ship urgently needs a home. Without securing a new and permanent pier location, the ship – which is facing eviction from her current pier in Philadelphia – will be lost forever. Securing a home for the ship requires engagement and support now from state and local political leaders in places like New York, Pennsylvania, Florida, and other major port cities.
THAT'S WHERE YOU CAN MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE FOR THE BIG U.
Today, we are asking for your help in spreading the word about all of the enormous economic and cultural benefits the SS United States would bring to her future home. Saving this iconic symbol of the nation would generate thousands of jobs, create acres of new waterfront green space, and draw visitors from across the country and around the world.

Thank you, once again, for your continued support. Together, we have achieved remarkable progress in creating a commercially-viable plan for saving the SS United States. Now we need to rally around America’s Flagship and find her a home.
