We celebrate the release of the Cuban 5
political prisoners held by the U.S. government for 16 years. Their freedom also marks a positive change in relations between the U.S. government and Cuba.
The Cuban Five are heroes who came to the U.S.
to stop terrorist attacks against their country.
By secretly joining the most reactionary groups in Florida,
the Cuban Five put their lives at risk in order to stop attacks on Cuba and its socialist system. Freedom for the Cuban Five and the plans to normalize relations with Cuba announced by President Obama are to be applauded.

Marco Rubio is out of touch with reality and on the wrong side of history
Exposing more ordinary Cubans to American visitors, opening up the island's economy and expanding access to the Internet will only bring the public demand for human rights and individual liberty in Cuba more squarely before the Communist regime. here

Beware Of Hialeah Cop Harold Garzon
If you’re ever in Hialeah, Fla., beware of police officer Harold Garzon. He already has accumulated 16 internal affairs complaints, and over Thanksgiving likely added another one when he pulled over a Harvard graduate and current Florida International University law student for having the NWA’s “Fuck Tha Police” playing in his own car while he was stopped at a red light.

Right Wing Propaganda In Florida Schools
An effort to require students in Florida public schools to watch a controversial documentary by conservative pundit Dinesh D'Souza gained ground this week with the support of a state House member. Rep. Neil Combee, a Lakeland Republican, filed a bill seeking to mandate that all eighth- and 11th-grade students view the film America: Imagine the World Without Her. His legislation is identical to a measure filed by Sen. Alan Hays in November. here

Support SB 166: Ban Fracking In Florida
Florida's delicate ecology and vast underground aquifer system are in danger from fracking.
We’re at an important moment in the debate over this critical issue: Sens. Darren Soto (D-Orlando) and Dwight Bullard (D-Miami) have introduced SB 166, a statewide ban on this dangerous threat to our water, our environment, and the health of our communities.
Sign our petition urging legislators to support SB 166 and finally remove the threat of fracking from endangering the Florida we love.
