@WhiteHouse Can you please provide the science on why international travel cannot resume for vaccinated foreigners into the US from UK/EU? The WH continues to say this is based on science and on advice from health advisors. Is this your recommendation? #loveisnottourism
@WhiteHouse If it’s safe for Americans to enter U.K. n Europe why are you forcing the U.K./EU to spend 14 days in countries with higher COVID rates and lower vaccinations than our own. These countries are not particularly safe for travellers
@DHSgov Maybe I don’t understand bc I’m not a medical expert, but would you good folks at @DHSgov be so kind as to share the data saying flying in a plane w 100 strangers is safer than driving in a private vehicle across the border? #LoveIsNotTourism would love an explanation.
We urge @POTUS to set science-based policies regarding int’l travel & set a reopening date as quickly as possible, especially as the U.K., much of the E.U. & Canada have all taken recent steps to reopen their borders to vaccinated travelers. We can safely and responsibly reopen.
@CDCgov If the vaccine is effective, why are vaccinated individuals from Schengen still banned from entering? Why can an unvaccinated individual enter from Mexico, but a vaccinated individual can't enter from a country with a much lower case rate? #LoveIsNotTourism#LiftTheTravelBan
@POTUS You once said that travel bans are favoritism, and won't stop the virus. You said two weeks ago ago that you could give a timeline for the borders lifting. A vague response of "science" is not an answer, it's not a timeline, families are suffering. #LoveIsNotTourism
What is the criteria? Iceland, UK, Netherlands, Belgium, Portugal, Spain, Italy, and Portugal ALL have a higher vaccination rate than the US. Please show us the "Science". @PressSec@POTUS@SecBlinken#LoveIsNotTourism
@JoeBiden Only if you're a citizen. Why are families still separated? Vaccinated individuals with a neg test from a country with over 70% fully vaccinated have to "quarantine" in a country with only 23% vaccinated and many times the number of cases?? That isn't Science. #LoveIsNotTourism
Wow I can't believe I've not seen this before.
What an absolute gem of a video, all the way back from March 2020. It's staggering how much of a hypocrite Biden has become.
(Thanks to @JenHA91 for making me aware of this!)

@SecBecerra When will you get started on exemptions from the Schengen ban for unmarried partners/K-1 visas? I cannot see my fiancé until you do. It's been 13 months. My family is suffering, and you have the power to fix it. #LoveIsNotTourism#ResumeK1Visa
@SecBecerra Due to the ban on Schengen and the lack of exemptions for K-1 visas, I haven't seen my other half in a year now. Family is extremely important, and thousands of families have been separated for 13+ months now -- it's time for exemptions. #LoveIsNotTourism#ResumeK1Visa
@CDCDirector Then why are you still banning valid visa holders from countries with far better numbers of covid cases/deaths? Why can vaccinated Americans tourists travel abroad and return w/o testing/quarantine, but our vaccinated foreign loved ones can't enter?#LoveIsNotTourism#ResumeK1Visa
It's almost April. I hate that it's been this long with still no change whatsoever. All of the months are blending together now, they're all nothing but painful separation from my fiancé and radio silence from @PressSec@POTUS@VP@TravelGov . #LoveIsNotTourism#ResumeK1Visa
