Mission

Cubacentral.com is run by the Freedom to Travel Campaign of the Center for Democracy in the Americas. Our mission is to change U.S. policy from a strategy of confrontation to one of normalized relations and common sense between the United States and Cuba.

For more that four decades, the United States has tried to isolate Cuba, economically and diplomatically. While punitive U.S. sanctions hurt Americans and Cubans, this foreign policy has left the United States with precious little influence in Cuba as the Cuban people look to their own future. Like us, our supporters in Congress favor a policy of engagement-freedom to travel, the ability to sell food, the right to exchange ideas, and the duty to support one's family-and that is the agenda that we are fighting for in Congress. The majority of the American people are with us, and we are working with Republicans and Democrats in the Congress to reverse what President Bush has done and continues to do.
