Heated Debate on Lifting Travel Ban

HAVANA TIMES, Nov. 19 – Representatives of the Democratic and Republican parties held today a heated debate on the possible lifting of the travel to Cuba ban during a session of the House of Representatives’ Foreign Affairs Committee.  “The travel ban is not a sanction against Cuba, it is a sanction against the U.S. people imposed by our own government,” said Democrat Bill Delahunt, one of the principal promoters of a change in relations with the island with a socialist system.

Havana Times will be bringing our readers a first hand account of the hearing held on Capitol Hill in Washington on Thursday.
