BISMARCK – U.S. Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND) issued the following statement today on the Biden Administration easing restrictions on the entry of certain non-essential travelers from the U.S-Canada border:
“After months of urging the Biden Administration to reopen the border with Canada, I am glad to finally see some positive movement. A closed border hurts our economy and puts unnecessary restraints on our communities. I urge President Biden to focus his attention more on fixing the crisis at our southern border and less on implementing harmful restrictions on North Dakotans.”
The restrictions are set to be lifted in November.
For months, Senator Cramer has repeatedly urged the Biden Administration to reopen the U.S.-Canada border. Following the senator’s urging, the administration announced today that vaccinated Canadians can cross the border for non-essential sick travel.
