Congress members alert about the entry of Cuban repressors to the USA: "They represent a threat."

Cuban-American congressmen Mario Díaz-Balart, María Elvira Salazar, and Carlos Giménez signed a letter on Thursday to warn about the danger posed by the entry of repressors from the Cuban regime into the territory of the United States.

On the social network X, Díaz-Balart shared the letter addressed to the Secretaries of State, Antony Blinken, and Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas, "expressing our outrage about operations of the Cuban regime and human rights abusers, such as prosecutor Rosabel Roca Sampedro, who are seeking entry into the U.S.".

Likewise, the publication points out that "she (Roca Sampedro) and operatives of the regime are responsible for the unjust imprisonment of #J11 protesters and represent a threat to our national security," while adding that these human rights violators should not receive such benefit while innocent protesters languish in the island's jails.

As members of Congress with constituents personally affected by the brutality of the oppressive regime in Cuba, we are writing to assure you that you are aware of the outrage caused by the attempt of the Cuban Rosabel Roca Sampedro to enter the United States, and that you carefully examine those seeking entry to the United States to ensure that they are not violators of human rights," states the document presented by the Cuban-American congressmen.

Likewise, it refers to the report published on the Martí Noticias website, detailing the direct involvement of Roca Sampedro, a prosecutor in the province of Camagüey, in sending at least four innocent individuals to prison with sentences exceeding three or four years for their participation in the protests of July 11, 2021.

The letter recalls US legislation, which grants authority for the imposition of sanctions in response to human rights abuses, including revoking the special privilege of entry into the territory of the American nation, as well as the Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act, which allows for denying entry through Section 212 of the Immigration and Nationality Act, Section 7031 (c).

"In fact, the Biden Administration imposed specific sanctions on a handful of individuals for their role in the persecution of the July 11 protesters immediately after the protests," the text details.

Furthermore, she points out that "given the ongoing repression and abuses against human rights taking place in Cuba today, we must ensure that those individuals acting on behalf of a cruel regime that actively opposes the interests of the U.S. should not benefit from the extraordinary privilege of entering its territory."

The letter represents a necessary warning in the face of the increasing number of repressors seeking to reside in the US, such as the Villa Clara judge Melody González Pedraza, who attended her first asylum hearing this Wednesday after arriving in the country with humanitarian parole and being denied entry by authorities in Tampa.

Currently detained in Broward awaiting a judicial sentence, the jurist was involved in the conviction for "attempted murder" of four young Cubans and requested political asylum after arriving in Tampa with a travel permit and humanitarian parole, Martí Noticias reported.

Due to the constant complaints from the Cuban exile, it has been prevented in time for regime repressors to benefit from humanitarian parole to settle in the United States, as was the case with the son of Prime Minister Manuel Marrero Cruz or the former first secretary of the Communist Party in the Isle of Youth, Liván Fuentes Álvarez.
