End the Illegal Blockade of Cuba!

Cuba is going dark, and Washington is doing it on purpose.

Nine million people are suffering in Cuba. Six total blackouts of the entire national grid this year alone, with outages stretching past 20 hours in some provinces. Hospitals rationing care. Ventilators failing. This isn't a natural disaster... it's the direct result of an oil blockade the Trump administration has enforced since January, letting a grand total of one tanker reach Cuban shores in seven months. 
UN human rights experts warned this month that without immediate intervention, Cuba risks becoming a "silent Gaza." Children are DYING because the United States decided to weaponize fuel against a civilian population.

International law has never been vague about what this is: A blockade enforced by military assets is an act of war, full stop. That means Congress, not Trump alone, has the constitutional authority to decide whether it continues. 

In April, 47 senators... a bipartisan bloc... voted for the first time in history to recognize a blockade without a single shot fired as "hostilities" under the War Powers Act. They came up five votes short. Now it's the House's turn, and Americans are not on the fence about this: we oppose a war with Cuba by 64 points to 15, and among people with an opinion, that jumps to 81 percent against. The only thing standing between this blockade and a vote to end it is House leadership's willingness to schedule one.

Add your name now and tell your member of Congress to call the vote on H.Con.Res. 106 ... every signature adds pressure while there's still time to organize before the House returns, and every day of delay is another day of starvation used as a weapon >>
