Join the Campaign to Get Cuba Off the U.S. List of State Sponsors of Terrorism!

The worldwide campaign to get Cuba off the U.S. List of State Sponsors of Terrorism is well underway. As of September 30, there are 363,169 signatures on a petition addressed to U.S. President Joe Biden, out of the goal of 1 million. The organizers explain:

"For more than 60 years, the U.S. government has pursued a hostile policy against Cuba with the clear political intent to isolate the Cuban people through a cruel and inhumane blockade.

"In the midst of the pandemic, the Trump administration sought to further damage the Cuban economy not only by reinforcing the blockade with 243 new sanctions, but also by including Cuba on the of State Sponsors of Terrorism list.

"This designation makes it much harder for Cuba to make transactions using international banking systems and acquire necessary goods on the international market, such as fuel, food, construction supplies, hygiene products, and medicine.

"We want to reach more than one million signatures to demand that the current U.S. government remove Cuba from the State Sponsors of Terrorism list and unconditionally end the blockade, which is rejected by the entire international community.

"We will deliver signed petitions to the White House on December 8, 2023."

All peace- and justice loving people who support Cuba's right to be are encouraged to sign and mobilize others to sign, by sharing the campaign online or by printing out the petition and getting signatures in your communities. Visit LetCubaLive.info to sign, share and print the petition.
