“Save the SS United States Campaign”

Contact’s Page

Below are the contact details of all US Senators. Please write to all of them and explain to them the importance of the SS United States and why she must be retained by the USA for she is America’s greatest maritime achievement and she is an icon to the world as the fastest Trans Atlantic liner to be built.

(From the authors collection)

Please understand that I do not believe that a cruise company has the right to rebuild and destroy her original beauty and change the ship that we have today, that includes ripping out her original steam engines, for we must preserve and refit her as close as possible to her original condition and make her a great monument to ship building in America, as well serving as a fine deluxe hotel, tourist complex, a maritime museum, etc, in New York City were she rightly belongs. I do not agree that she should be mauled over by cruise companies as I have said thus, let’s keep her in her original state and allow our future generations to marvel the wonders of what sea travel was really like in the great days of the ocean travel, when ships were ships and not just big square floating boxes, or rather condos that had a stubby a pointy end, instead they were graceful, sleek, elegant liners where the royalty, the stars and tourists and migrants would be able to stroll her decks alike!

Please America and the world write and make your feelings known in your own words. America, this is the best time to hit the Presidential hopefuls, as well as all the Senate.

Due to my health I have retired from the foundation I commenced back in 1999, but I am awaiting for an American person to takeover the “Save the SS Unites States Campaign” for me. In the meantime, please start writing. I suggest that you write one letter and keep a copy of it, then just copy and paste it on each form/email/ or the one fax on the list.

Thank you,

Reuben Goossens
