Reply #1: Federal Travel Restrictions Are An Unnecessary Infringement on American Liberties

[Vogon_Glory]

The US federal government's restrictions on travel to Cuba placed on American citizens and resident aliens are an unnecessary infringement on American liberties imposed during a period of Cold War hysteria that should have been repealed decades ago. Voting to repeal such restrictions isn't about supporting the current Cuban government or endorsing its policies; it's about restoring American liberty and removing lessening the heartbreak of Cuban families caused by the political divisions within and without our island neighbor. The elected politicians that still support such restrictions ought to be voted out not only by those favoring a changed policy towards Cuba, but also by those libertarian-minded voters who claim to oppose any restrictions on their liberties.
