WASHINGTON (Reuters), – Tuesday’s letter from the U.S. Travel Association urged President Obama to repeal COVID-19 travel restrictions, and to allow masks to be used on aircraft and other modes of transit by April 18 according to Reuters.

The group wrote to Dr. Ashish Jaha, the White House’s COVID Response Coordinator, requesting an immediate end of the pre-departure test requirement for all inbound internationally vaccinated persons, and ending the mask mandate by March 18th “or announcing a timeline and plan to repeal the federal mandate to vaccinate international persons within the next 90 days.”
