No decision yet on Canada-U.S. border: White House

The United States has made no decisions about when or how to reopen the border with Canada, the White House said Thursday in response to reports suggesting American patience with the closure has run its course. 

Press secretary Jen Psaki said she was not aware that any decisions had been made about the border beyond last week's news that the restrictions, which have been in place since March 2020, would be extended to June 21. 

A media report Wednesday out of Point Roberts, Wash., a border community hit hard by the restrictions, cited anonymous sources with U.S. Customs and Border Protection as saying the closure would end by June 22. 

"It was just extended for about a month, I think, so that's around that timeline," Psaki told a media briefing.

 "I don't think a decision has been made, that I'm aware of, about what would happen after that."
