White House rules out involvement in vaccine passports

[Stallion]

5. Words Such as Passport and Visa Have Specific Meanings Defined by Federal and International Law

When you use the term "vaccination passport" you are allowing Republicans to assert that they have regulatory authority over passports which they don't. Their authority is strictly with regard to intra-state activities. Democrats should be precise in their definition so as to counter Republican attempts to confuse the public.

A passport is a legal document, issued by governments worldwide to certify proof of identity and citizenship. It is meant to confirm your identity when you visit another country that is not governed by your own. The passport includes your photo and several blank pages for official documentation when you arrive in another country. A visa, on the other hand, is an official document provided by the country you wish to visit, granting you temporary permission to enter the country for a certain amount of time. Visas vary depending on the length of stay and the purpose of your visit. They can be paper documents or just a stamp in your passport, depending on the country.
