Relations with Cuba

The 110th Congress should
- repeal the Cuban Liberty and Democratic
Solidarity (Libertad, or Helms-Burton)
Act of 1996;
- repeal the Cuban Democracy (Torricelli) Act
of 1992;
- restore the policy of granting Cuban refugees
political asylum in the United States;
- eliminate or privatize Radio and TV Marti;
- end all trade sanctions on Cuba and allow
U.S. citizens and companies to visit and
establish businesses in Cuba as they see
fit; and
- move toward the normalization of diplomatic
relations with Cuba.
Bush and Ashcroft brag about how the feds' new surveillance powers will
stop terrorist financiers. But the Treasury Department's Office of Foreign
Assets Control has ten times more
agents assigned to track violators of the
U.S. embargo on Cuba as it has tracking Osama Bin Laden's
money.
—James Bovard, "Bush's
Top Ten Farces"
