Believe it or not, that quote comes from Republican Senator Richard
Lugar. He’s right!
Write to Secretary Hillary Clinton, U.S. Department of State, 2201 C Street NW Washington, DC 20520, or call 202-647-4000.
The message: lift travel restrictions, rethink sanctions,
and normalize relations with Cuba.
Peace,
Arnie Matlin for GVCP
