The Biden White House is requiring all non-U.S. citizens - including Mexican and Canadian truck drivers - to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination in order to enter the country via all land ports of entry?and?ferry terminals.
The move is certain to exacerbate existing supply chain issues in the United States.
The Department of Homeland Security announced the new policy on January 22nd:. "The Department of Homeland Security will?require?that?non-U.S.?individuals?entering the United States via?land ports of entry or ferry terminals along?our Northern and?Southern?borders?be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and be prepared to show related proof of?vaccination," explained Secretary?Alejandro N.?Mayorkas.
Verbally attest to their COVID-19 vaccination status;.
Provide?proof of?a?CDC-approved COVID-19 vaccination,?as outlined on the CDC website;.
Be?prepared to present any other?relevant?documents requested by?a?U.S. Customs and Border Protection?officer?during a border inspection.
The decision comes amidst America's grocery stores facing unprecedented shortages and bare shelves, a problem which could be exacerbated by the policy given its relevance to truck drivers attempting to enter the U.S. via the Mexican or Canadian border.
