A U.S. lawmaker who has made a political crusade out of getting the border with Canada reopened is once again pressing his case with President Joe Biden.
New York Rep. Brian Higgins has written to Biden again, this time to argue that the U.S. Centers for Disease Control is proving his point.
Yesterday, the CDC declared that fully vaccinated people need no longer wear face masks in nearly all situations, including indoors.
Higgins says that decision affirms the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines and what he calls the "minimal risk" Americans would pose to Canadians when visiting family or property.
He says Canada has made "steady progress" in its vaccination efforts and praised Biden for sending 1.5 million doses of the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine north.
He also says the U.S. can and should share more of its vaccine supply.
