Continuing to close the U.S. border to Canadians harms separated families & hurts opportunities for economic recovery.
The time to act is long overdue.
Where is the US plan to reopen the border to Canada & @LetUsReunite?
My view in @barronsonline:

Tomorrow marks 16 months of the land border closure. Take 10 minutes today and tet your elected officials that enough is enough. Otherwise, it's never going to end #LetUsReunite https://t.co/GMV3CdRucY
Last week @RepBrianHiggins @RepHuizenga@USRepKCastor led a bipartisan letter signed by 72 of their colleagues demanding @POTUS to reopen the US/Canada border. Why hasn’t @WhiteHouse responsed? It’s been almost 16 months. #LetUsReunite
Many US news stations are framing Canada’s policy change as a win without asking why @POTUS@WhiteHouse aren’t reciprocating. Please take a minute to reach out to your local news & push them to report on that story #LetUsReunite
Yesterday Canada announced vaccinated Americans can visit as of Aug 9. Where is the announcement from @WhiteHouse@POTUS? Is the border closure just going to roll over yet again with no official comment? 16 months of silence is as shocking as it is unacceptable #LetUsReunite
The never ending closure of the US/Canadian border is hurting many families. It’s been almost 16 months & the @WhiteHouse still hasn’t made any comment on when it may open, or what metrics they are looking at https://t.co/fgrlJbnYHp
The US/CA border closed almost 16 months ago. Canada realized #FamilyIsEssential & twice created travel exemptions. The US has done NOTHING to alleviate our suffering. #WhereIsThePlan#LetUsReunite
It’s unbelievable that the @WhiteHouse@POTUS says America is coming #BackTogether yet refuse to make a single comment or take action on the 16 month US/CA land border closure that’s keeping thousands of families apart. The science works, & it’s time to #LetUsReunite
As Canada announces a small change to it’s quarantine policy, remember it’s been almost 15 months & @POTUS@WhiteHouse@DHSgov@AliMayorkas have made ZERO exemptions for families to cross the land border into the US. The silence is deafening #LetUsReunite#FamilyIsEssential
Today I joined families who are separated by the US - Canada border closure to call for answers and action.
16 months of indefinite closures, uncertainty, and heartache is unacceptable. The President and PM need a plan to reopen our shared border ASAP.

Thank you @SenSchumer for asking @POTUS for a plan to open the US/Canada land border, but it must start with exemptions to allow families to cross! Canada first did it a year ago! It’s been over 14 months. My family is suffering #LetUsReunite#DemandThePlan
There are rumors of a June 22 reopening, but nothing confirmed. We must keep the pressure on so the @WhiteHouse cannot simply roll the US/Canada closure over another month without any plan to reopen or exemptions to see our families.

Today @JustinTrudeau said:
“We all want to reopen, we all want to go back to travelling to see friends, take vacations, go on trips.”
Is reuniting with family the equivalent to an all-inclusive Cancun package according to him?
Canadians WANT a plan.
