Dominica Presses Washington to Lift Visa Curbs Hurting Patients and Students

The curbs, imposed under a December executive order, also touch Antigua and Barbuda. For diaspora families who rely on cross-border travel for treatment and schooling, the appeal underscores how mobility policy has become a bread-and-butter concern.
