U.S. Edges Closer to Allowing in Unvaccinated Skiers

The United States is currently open to tourists from all over the world, but unusually among major nations, it is still required for non-US citizens to prove they are vaccinated against Covid-19 to be allowed to enter the country.

However the US House of Representatives has now passed a bill that would remove this requirement, however the bill still needs to successfully pass through the Senate and also receive President Biden’s approval.

There appears to be some politics at play with the measure to end the requirement introduced by the Republicans, although seven Democrats joined the 3/5 majority vote in favour of dropping the vaccination requirement on arrivals by air.

It is unclear how soon the bill will be heart by the senate and whether President Biden would approve it into legislation if it passes there.
