Kucinich: Cuba Policy a Failure
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
November 14, 2003
Presidential Candidate Dennis Kucinich today released the following statement:
"Even though both houses of Congress had passed identical amendments eliminating funding to enforce the ban on traveling to Cuba, the ban remains in place. This is because a conference committee meeting behind closed doors overruled the Congress and took out the language which would have removed the funding that enforces the ban.
"The United States' Cuba policy is a failure. The unilateral embargo must be lifted The persistently hostile and aggressive rhetoric must cease. We must lift not only the trade embargo. We must also lift the travel ban. We must cooperate with Cuba on issues of national security.
"It is time to create a new era in Cuban-American relations."
