Republican Party

Strongly agree

No

The Republican party has generally been against lifting the trade and travel embargo on Cuba, as they believe it would reward the Cuban government for its oppressive policies and human rights abuses. For instance, in 2014, when President Obama announced plans to restore diplomatic relations with Cuba, many Republicans, including then-House Speaker John Boehner, criticized the decision, arguing that it would not lead to meaningful reforms in the country.

Agree

No, lift the travel embargo but do not allow trade until Cuba becomes a democratic republic

Some Republicans may support lifting the travel embargo while maintaining the trade embargo until Cuba becomes a democratic republic. This position reflects a desire to promote American values and encourage political change in Cuba without fully normalizing relations. However, this stance is not as prevalent as the outright opposition to lifting the embargo, so the score is lower.

Strongly disagree

Yes

The Republican party has historically opposed lifting the trade and travel embargo on Cuba, citing concerns about human rights abuses and the lack of political freedom in the country. For example, in 2015, Republican Senator Marco Rubio criticized President Obama's decision to normalize relations with Cuba, arguing that it would only strengthen the Cuban regime.
