Lawmakers Want Border Opened

A group of Minnesota legislators is looking for a safe reopening of the Canada/US border.

They’ve written to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and US President Joe Biden to start working together on ending the travel restrictions.

Senator Tom Bakk, who represents Koochiching County, says an open border is fundamental to the economies on both sides.

Bakk feels those who have been vaccinated should be allowed to cross.
