    Carr and Florida Leaders Urge Support for Internet Freedom in Cuba

    MIAMI, FLORIDA, July 15, 2021 -
    Today, Commissioner Brendan Carr joined Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, Lieutenant Governor Jeanette Nuñez, and RepresentativesMaria Elvira
    Salazar and Carlos Giménez to reiterate their call for the Biden Administration to offer its full support for American enterprise to
    provide Internet service to the people of Cuba. Commissioner Carr
    issued the following statement:

    "This is a moment in history that we cannot let pass. Increasingly,
    dictators around the world are shutting down Internet connections when
    people yearning for freedom stand up to those oppressive regimes. We
    are seeing that right now in Cuba. The communist regime does not want
    the free world to witness the brutal tactics they are deploying in
    their effort to cling to power. So the regime is shutting down the
    Internet connections that allow the Cuban people to shine a light on
    those oppressive tactics.

    "I was proud to stand with Governor DeSantis and Florida leaders in
    Miami today to call on the Biden Administration to put its full
    support behind efforts to end this Internet blockade. American
    enterprises have the technology capability to beam Internet into Cuba,
    and we must not lose any time in authorizing and clearing the way for
    the deployment of those technologies"
