San Diego's mayor and lawmakers call for end to COVID restrictions at the US-Mexico border

A group of southern California lawmakers, including San Diego's mayor, called for an end to pandemic restrictions along the border with Mexico as part of an effort to boost the local economy.

"As the rate of COVID-19 cases continue to plummet, and other restrictions have been lifted, I see no reason to continue selective restrictions that impact our cross-border community," mayor Todd Gloria said in a press release.

The border has been closed to non-essential travel since March 2020. The Dept. of Homeland Security last Sunday extended through July 21 those restrictions for all land or ferry crossings into the US.
