About time…
South Florida Sun Sentinel (Alexia Campbell):
While most of the nation focused on the stimulus bill winding through Congress, nine representatives introduced a bill calling for an end to the 46-year-old ban on travel to Cuba.
The Freedom to Travel to Cuba Act introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives on Feb. 4 would allow American citizens unrestricted travel to Cuba for the first time since 1963. The bill by Rep. William Delahunt, D-Mass., and eight co-sponsors would also lift limits on travel by Cuban exiles living in the United States. The president would not be able to regulate travel to the island unless an armed conflict or armed danger arises.
The bill has gone too far, said Francisco “Pepe” Hernandez, president of the Cuban American National Foundation.
Being a South Florida paper, the link read “Stealth Bill…” as if there is something underhanded about not paying attention to a CANF, which is tied to terrorist activities and smuggling here in Mexico. Alas, with people like Ron Paul behind it, a common sense bill is likely to be written off as lunatic.
