A bipartisan group of US Senators yesterday reinstated legislation in the Senate to withdraw all restrictions on travel to Cuba, attracting more supporters this time, a sign of an increasingly positive attitude towards US-Cuban relations whose future remains uncertain. The Freedom of Travel Bill in Cuba was introduced to the Senate in 2015 by eight Republican and Democrat supporters, but never reached plenary. Yesterday's effort has 55 supporters.
In his election campaign in 2016, Republican President Donald Trump had threatened to reverse the efforts of Democratic predecessor Barack Obama in 2014 to normalize relations between the United States and the island nation in Karavaikis, which is under communist regime. The Government of Tramp examines US policy towards the former US Cold War fighter.
Obama relaxed restrictions on trade and travel, creating a wave of US visits to Cuba, although tourism had not yet been officially authorized. On Wednesday, more than 40 US travel agencies and organizations urged Trab not to cancel US citizens' trips to the island.
