Judicial Watch Meets With Congress to Toughen U.S. Sanctions Against Cuba


Joined by its clients and victims of Castro’s oppression, Judicial Watch walked the halls of Congress demanding that action be taken against Fidel Castro and his torturous regime.

The group began the week by meeting with Kansas Senator Sam Brownback, a member of the Foreign Relations Committee and a strong human rights advocate. Cuban-American members of Congress, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Lincoln Diaz-Balart and Mario Diaz-Balart then held a lengthy meeting with Judicial Watch representatives.

Even Arizona Congressman Jeff Flake, who supports ending the trade embargo with Cuba, opened his doors to Judicial Watch and its Cuban American clients to listen to their pleas.

"The Bush administration freed Iraq for the Iraqi people, and now it’s time to free Cuba for the Cuban people," said JW Chairman Larry Klayman, who led the group. "Our national security is being threatened by Castro."
