Congresswoman Lauren Boebert’s amendment requiring the CDC to report the number of legal visitors denied entry to the United States under the Biden Administration’s vaccine mandate for all incoming international air and land travelers passed the House with strong bipartisan support.
Congresswoman Lauren Boebert stated, “This simple, straightforward amendment will provide transparency surrounding this ludicrous and unscientific vaccine mandate put in place by Joe Biden’s bureaucrats. This unnecessary CDC rule has made everyday life so much harder for many people: from tearing apart family reunifications to discouraging companies from doing business with America. I have heard from so many people who have been hurt by this mandate, including: the mother of a Dutch tourist who died on the Appalachian trail who was unable to come to the United States to collect her son’s body; a Canadian man who has been unable to visit his fiancée on American soil for the past three years; a man working for a company in the United Kingdom who has been unable to travel to the United States for business meetings; and a family in New Hampshire with Canadian in-laws who have been unable to have Canadian family members visit for Christmas in the United States since COVID started.”
