Two Democratic lawmakers have been pushing for vaccine mandates for all domestic travelers boarding flights.
Citing a need to ensure the safety of passengers, Representative Don Beyer on Friday introduced a bill that would require domestic air and rail travelers to either show proof of vaccination or present a negative COVID-19 test within 72 hours of boarding flights and Amtrak trains.
"Requiring airport and Amtrak travelers and employees to provide a proof of COVID vaccine or negative test is just common sense," the Virginia Democrat said."These are easy steps we can take to make travel safer, as companies like United have already demonstrated with responsible policy changes." Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and member of the response team, testifies at a Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee hearing at the Dirksen Senate Office Building on July 20, 2021 in Washington, DC.
