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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
