Senator Feinstein introduces bill requiring vaccine or negative COVID-19 for domestic flights

Vaccines could soon be the ticket to traveling in the United States. Senator Dianne Feinstein has proposed legislation that would require all travelers taking domestic flights to present proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test. 

Under the U.S. Air Travel Public Safety Act, the secretary of Health and Human Services and the Federal Aviation Administration would be required to develop national vaccination standards and procedures for air travel.

It would also require the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices to make recommendations for COVID-19 vaccine use in health care settings and among health care personnel in other settings.
