"Numerous press reports described the couple’s trip as tourism, and the Castro regime touted it as such in its propaganda," wrote Reps. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and Mario Diaz-Balart, both Republicans, in a letter to the Treasury Department. The lawmakers called for a Treasury agency to investigate the visit. Mauricio Claver-Carone, the head of a PAC that promotes democracy in Cuba, added to the outcry: "There are women getting beaten on a daily basis, women who are being jailed for no reason ... people are fighting for their freedom," he told TMZ. "It’s extremely insensitive." A US embargo makes it illegal for Americans to visit Cuba without a "cultural exchange" license, but many still go there from neighboring countries, the Huffington Post reports. Maybe that's how the high-powered pair got to Havana, where they set off flashbulbs as they dined in restaurants and visited historical sites.
