WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, Congressman Carlos A. Gimenez (FL-28) issued the following statement after Members of Congress visited the evil, Communist regime in Cuba:
"Communist Cuba must remain on the List of State Sponsors of Terrorism," said Rep. Gimenez. "Recently, Members of Congress travelled to my native Cuba to meet with the murderous regime that has killed thousands & forced millions more into exile. There is no negotiating with these pathetic thugs."
