A proposal is currently under consideration to remove U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers from Newark Liberty International Airport. If implemented, this change could lead to significant complications for travelers using the airport.

Representatives from hospitality and travel sectors have expressed serious concerns over this proposal. They warn that taking CBP officers away from Newark could result in travelers becoming stranded and could severely disrupt airport operations. Additionally, the potential economic damage to the travel and tourism industry has been highlighted by these stakeholders.
