Rules for Ending US Entry Suspensions During Pandemics.

This act establishes clear procedures for terminating the suspension of entry of persons into the United States, which was implemented due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It ensures that decisions to reopen borders are made with public health safety and preparedness for potential influxes in mind, impacting public health and citizen security.
Key points
COVID-19 entry suspensions cannot be lifted sooner than 60 days after Congress is notified of the public health emergency termination.
Within 30 days of notification, the government must submit a plan to manage potential influxes, including screening for communicable diseases and illicit substances.
The plan must detail the government's capacity for testing, disease prevention, and protection of federal employees.
Failure to submit the plan on time will delay the termination of entry suspensions, ensuring adequate preparation.
