The Cuban embargo is a completely failed policy and has done more to keep the regime in power than to remove it. I call for an end to this bully-ideology that has only served to discredit our country as well as spawn other communist regimes in Latin America.
Now, more than ever there are social and economic reasons to end this job-killing policy that has divided and hurt so many families on either side of the Florida Straits for half a century without any progress toward spurring democracy. Our president has the power to not renew this policy in September of this year. It is time for this completely failed policy to end.
