Brunch with Cuban-American Democrats and an update on US/Cuba policy - Saturday, February 2nd

Cuban-American Democrats will kick off a critical year as we work to inform voters on current legislation being drafted and upcoming elections in 2019 and 2020. Join us for brunch on Saturday, February 2nd, 2019 at 10am. Location: Casa Cuba, 5859 SW 73rd St, South Miami.

With regards to Cuba, we will discuss the potential impacts of the revised Cuban constitution, and learn more about Cuba under Miguel Díaz-Canel. What inroads were made under Obama that have been undone by Trump?
