People to People licenses are being held up by pure venomous politics. In fact, for the organizations we work with, this is the last People to People trip until their licenses are renewed. We think depending on the outcome of the election and the might of the Cuban Right, the license renewals will come through. But this a moment to call your Congress people and urge them to push People to People travel forward, as well as the right of all people to travel.
