LIFTING TRAVEL BAN ON CUBA. The U.S. Congress eased restrictions on travel to Cuba and importation of food and medicine to that country in the omnibus spending bill it passed early last week. If President Obama signs the bill, Cuban-Americans will be able to visit their families in Cuba with less restrictions. Human rights organizations celebrate the policy change, but call for an end to the embargo and the travel ban against all U.S. residents as well as fully normalized relations.
