In March, we asked you to sign our petition urging the Biden-Harris Administration to restore bilateral relations with Cuba. We are grateful to you for taking action to relieve the suffering of the Cuban people. While it is encouraging to see so many Americans support engagement between our two nations, our work is not yet done. We want to get more signatures on our petition before delivering to the White House. That’s where you come in.

- For the past four years, we saw the Trump-Pence Administration undo all of the progress made by the Obama-Biden Administration and double down on failed policies towards Cuba. Travel restrictions, harsher sanctions, and caps on remittances have burdened Cuban families and chipped away at the prospect of normalizing U.S. relations with our island neighbor. We are urging the Biden-Harris Administration to pave a new path forward: one of mutual understanding and engagement. Sign the petition below to ensure they receive the message, loud and clear!

- It is well past time to end the suffering of the Cuban people. After a year of the pandemic on top of the brutal, decades-long embargo, the U.S. must reflect on its inhumane policies toward our island neighbor. Our message to the White House is simple: a majority of Americans support engagement between our two nations! Sign the petition below to make sure you are one of them too!

- Travel restrictions. Harsher sanctions. Caps on remittances. These are just some of the policies that have burdened Cuban families and chipped away at the prospect of normalizing U.S. relations with our island neighbor. Time is of the essence as Cubans struggle to stay afloat in the middle of an economic and humanitarian crisis, the effects of which have been felt more strongly under the pandemic. We demand action NOW to restore bilateral relations with Cuba. The power is in OUR hands ✊ Be loud. Be bold. Sign the petition❗️

- After witnessing four years of heightened cruelty towards Cuba, we have finally been granted an opportunity to right the wrongs of the past 60 years, and we can’t let it go to waste. Cubans and Americans deserve to travel freely between our two countries. Cubans in the U.S. have a right to send money to their families back on the island. And most importantly, the people of Cuba shouldn’t be left to suffer through a decades-long embargo, especially as it struggles to recover from the pandemic. The people united can NEVER be defeated. And we stand with the people of Cuba 🇨🇺 Make your voice heard and sign the petition!
