The House of Representatives is set to vote this week on legislation that, if passed and signed into law, would remove the requirement for proof of a COVID-19 vaccine for non-U.S. citizens who seek to fly into the United States.

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) and Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) on Feb. 3 separately confirmed the upcoming vote for HR 185.
