“In Cuba, there’s nothing. There’s no freedom. We came from Cuba because the pressure that we have there,” Giovanni Acosta said.
They arrive in hundreds each day at the Laredo Point of Entry to be processed by the Boarder Patrol and allowed entry. The action at the Hidalgo International Bridge has grown.
For 40 years, Jose Angel Rodriguez has made his living driving a cab. He said he’s seeing more Cubans crossing the port of entry.
According to one man, a cab driver, “They get here every night, in the morning, and at night they get here. They go to Laredo, too,”
How is it that Cubans can enter the United States like this? Under a legislative holdover from the Cold War which grants “a form of amnesty that allows them to stay and be given all the benefits of refugees” entices Cubans to come to America.
Congressman Henry Cuellar’s office said Cuban refugees are coming to Laredo’s Point of Entry every day and the numbers are increasing. They’re coming from Central America through Mexico to the border.
Is it just a matter of time that a radicalized Muslim, posting as a Cuban refugee, gains amnesty at our southern borders?

Anytime Obama does something that looks like it might be a good thing there is always an evil alternative motivation. His goal is to flood America with every type of refugees he can get his hands on. Google the CLOWARD PIVEN scenario this is something that he and Hillary Clinton studied in college.
I would take Cubans way more than refugees from mid east. At least they are Christian, not Muslims.
over 350,000 Cubans refugees arrived in the US since 2005. Cubans get Social security payments on arrival and welfare and then they head back to Cuba will the collect your social security. because of the embargo we cannot send back the criminals. Castro can send anyone he wants to The US. I might prefer the Syrians.
Cubans come to to the US and immediately incorporate themselves to America’s society. I myself came here 25 years ago as part of the “balseros” exodus. I have been working for 15 years a Spanish and Computer Science teacher. Giving back to the society that allowed me to live my life as a free man.
Terrorists=refugees…..same thing!
Shoot on site!
Good grief! And it was recently announced that there will be cuts in our boarder patrol! This is the planning our our current administration! Most likely to bring in the Feds who have no business being there. This is very dangerous for our country.

Stop talking bad about the Cubans who are not all like you say. That smells like envy
So now Obama is labeling Cubans as refugees. Float their asses back to Cuba. They don’t look hungry or sick or abused to me. Just like the damn cockroaches.
Wrong. Where are the patrols that brag they keep aliens out?
WE CANNOT AFFORD ALL THESE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT’S…..WE ARE 19 TRILLION DOLLAR’S IN DEBT. WE ARE GONNA LOSE OUR COUNTRY!!!

There are no jobs. Why are Cubans coming here. We know Castro takes most of the money they make. Good luck with that.
