Obama to Lift Cuba Travel Restrictions

The Washington Post reports today that President Obama will lift some of the restrictions on travel and commerce with Cuba.

A decades long embargo on Cuba has been a fixture of U.S. policy toward the island nation, but it can’t be said that the embargo has done much to undermine the communist government there.

A couple of bills in Congress address the Cuba embargo issue.  H.R. 874 and S. 428 are both called the “Freedom to Travel to Cuba Act.”

Here are the current votes on the two bills. Click to vote, comment, learn more, or edit the wiki articles about the bills.

Obama only allows Cuban Americans to travel there. If your an American American or another type of foreign American, your not allowed.

Obama must have figured those Cubans will sue over the land they lost. All American.
