Can someone point me to the TSA rule that states the un-vaccinated will not be allowed into the country?
Does that include American citizens?

It’s not a TSA rule. Biden made a pronouncement that he says was based on CDC guidance and the Customs and Border Patrol officials are supposed to enforce it. From a recent travel article:
“Unvaccinated foreigners interested in visiting the United States feel the effects of this restriction the most. Under the current restrictions, they have no way of coming into the States. However, they aren’t the only ones feeling the effects.
Recently, seventeen U.S. governors urged the President to get rid of the vaccination requirement for international travelers. In their letter, the governors pointed out that 72 other countries worldwide have eliminated vaccine and testing requirements. They also claimed that the restriction is doing damage to the economy.”
I’m one of the people who’s been most affected by this restriction. I used to travel to Buffalo, NY, about 2-3 times a week for golf, bridge, friends, restaurants, shopping, etc. since I live in a small Canadian border town. I was and continue to be cut off from most of my friends since March 18, 2020. I hope that’s one of the things that changes after Tuesday.
Unvaccinated Americans who can now enter Canada are permitted re-entry into the US purely on the basis of their citizenship. Unvaccinated US residents who are not citizens should probably not leave America since the CBP has no obligation to let them re-enter.
Thank you for the info. There’s no way I would enter Canada. It’s an authoritarian country now.
Once our current dog has passed we will travel. It’s a few years off. But then I will see the world that I wish too. I need to go back to Germany, see Italy for my Italian wife, Scotland, Iceland. France only to see WW1 battlegrounds. The rest can bog off.
