We used to say the same thing. that communism would die of its own evil. which it did. of its own ineptitude. which it did. And this is what we should admit to having with Cuba. And. I submit. the legislation before us does not do that. I believe all my colleagues agree on the goals of American policy toward Cubapromoting a peaceful transition to democracy. economic liberalization and greater respect for human rights while simultaneously controlling immigration from Cuba. What is clearly different is how we get there. In my view. the legislation before us today is going to take us further away from achieving these goals and is contrary to U.S. national interests.
