A host of prominent Republicans with strong political connections to Florida’s Hispanic community — including Sen. Marco Rubo (R-FL), former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, and Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL) — rushed to condemn President Barack Obama’s decision to restore diplomatic relations with Cuba on Wednesday, citing the Castro regime’s oppression and dictatorial form of government.
“Mr. Obama’s new Cuba policy is a victory for oppressive governments the world over and will have real, negative consequences for the American people,” Rubio wrote in an op-ed published in the Wall Street Journal. Bush — who announced his intention to explore a presidential bid in 2016 — pointed to the country’s “disastrous human rights record” and Ros-Lehtinen argued that normalization of relations “will embolden the Castro regime to continue its illicit activities, trample on fundamental freedoms, and disregard democratic principles.”
