Rep. #PramilaJayapal (D-WA) and Rep. #JonathanJackson (D-IL) traveled to Cuba last week, delivering an unusually blunt assessment of #US policy.

After meeting with Cubans from across the political spectrum, and visiting a hospital impacted by the #Trump-imposed #oil #blockade, they described US policy in stark terms, equating it to warfare against the Cuban people.

#US lawmakers Rep. #PramilaJayapal (D-WA) and Rep. #JonathanJackson (D-IL) traveled to Cuba and gave an exclusive interview to Belly of the Beast from Havana.

Their visit comes at a critical time for the island. Cuba is grappling with a deep economic crisis, fueled by U.S. “maximum pressure” #sanctions and an #oil #blockade.

“The only way to really understand the impact, the humanitarian crisis we’ve created, is by being here and talking to the Cuban people,” said Jayapal.
After their visit, both lawmakers described what they saw as a humanitarian crisis.

“This is an act of war that our country must stop,” stated Jackson.
