| U.S. senators introduce bill to lift embargo, open trade with Cuba |
| Washington, 13.02.2015 |
|
| In another step in the process to thaw relations with Cuba, a group of lawmakers on Thursday introduced legislation to lift the trade embargo that has existed with the country for decades.
The legislation comes two months after the White House announced its plans to normalize relations with Cuba, and two weeks after a group of lawmakers introduced legislation to relax travel restrictions between the U.S. and Cuba.
The opening to Cuba is a complicated, multi-pronged effort — part of which Congress can influence, part of which the administration can, and has, implemented on its own authority. The December announcement by the White House already loosened some travel and financial restrictions. But the major controls on travel and trade are much stronger and reversing them would require congressional action.
The legislation was introduced by Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., who was joined by Sens. Mike Enzi, R-Wyo., Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich., Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., and Dick Durbin, D-Ill.
