Did You Know?

1. In the Trade Sanctions Reform Act (TSRA) of 2000, Congress made possible the sale of food and medicine to Cuba, Iran, Libya and Sudan.

2. TSRA restrictions on private U.S. financing of food sales were only applied to Cuba and not Iran, Libya or Sudan.

3. Since December 2001, Cuba has contracted more than $250 million in U.S. food purchases.

4. Cuba could buy as much as $1.24 billion if restrictions on private U.S. financing were lifted.

5. Though a majority in Congress support lifting the financing restrictions

against Cuba, President Bush has opposed them. Write your member of

congress and tell him/her to fight for your right to trade freely with Cuba.
