Your contributions will go directly to sending food, medicines and other humanitarian assistance supplies to the island, as well as mobile phone recharges to help Cubans connect to the Internet. The Cuban people on the island desperately need your help. https://t.co/6T8i4vWKfH

Thank you @POTUS for fulfilling your promises to help reunify Cuban & Cuban-American families. Incredibly grateful to see that the @USEmbCuba is expanding consular services & restarting the processing of all categories of immigrant visas in early 2023. #promisesmade #promiseskept

[Felice Gorordo @fgorordo]

Thank you @POTUS for restarting the Cuban Family Reunification Program!

The deadly fire that raged for 5 days at a fuel storage facility in the port of Matanzas has been contained but the ensuing humanitarian, environmental, and economic crisis is still developing.

As @POTUS implements these important measures in support of the Cuban people, the #BidenHarris Administration continues to forcefully push the Cuban regime to respect basic freedom & human rights for all Cubans as they strive to become the authors of their own futures.

[Felice Gorordo @fgorordo]

Moreover, @POTUS will remove the current limit on family remittances of $1,000 per quarter per sender-receiver. Important: #BidenHarris Administration will NOT remove entities from the Cuba Restricted List, so remittances through the Cuba's FINCIMEX will remain prohibited.

[Felice Gorordo @fgorordo]

Third, @POTUS will increase support for Cuban civil society, independent entrepreneurs, & changemakers on the island. Fourth, #BidenHarris Administration will ensure that remittances flow more freely to the Cuban people while not enriching those who perpetrate human rights abuses

[Felice Gorordo @fgorordo]

First, @POTUS will reinstate the Cuban Family Reunification Parole & continue to increase capacity for consular services. Second, #BidenHarris Administration will strengthen family ties & facilitate connections for the American & Cuban people by expanding authorized travel.

[Felice Gorordo @fgorordo]

While continuing to demand that the Cuban regime immediately release all political prisoners, today's announcement will increase direct support for greater freedom & expanded economic opportunities for the Cuban people.

[Felice Gorordo @fgorordo]

Thank you, @POTUS, for fulfilling your promise & commitment to the Cuban-American community & our long-suffering families in #Cuba. The #BidenHarris Administration's Cuba policy remains firmly centered on #humanrights, & empowering the Cuban people to determine their own future.
