WASHINGTON --
$2.5 billion may be sent to Americas

Latin American countries and the Caribbean -- but not Cuba -- would get
an infusion of $2.5 billion over the next 10 years to help reduce
poverty and expand the middle class under a bipartisan Congressional
proposal that has the support of the Senate's two Cuban-American lawmakers.


Plus ca change...

at least it beats the "trade" program of Castro.
At least 86% of Cuban doctors abroad are paid for as are trainers, shipyard workers and agricultural workers.
This is aid, not trade.
