Granma newspaper gives details on Tuesday of a report released by the American non-partisan organization Public Campaign in which it reveals the names and amounts received by representatives and senators in Capitol Hill.

According to the report, the man providing the money is Mauricio Clever-Carone, a Cuban-Italian of the extreme right who presides over a committee registered in Washington as the US-Cuba Pac, which represents the interests of the Miami-based organization ‘Council for the Freedom of Cuba’, comprised of a group of millionaires of Cuban origin led by Remedios Diaz Oliver, a businesswoman in Miami who was accused years ago of federal tax evasion.

The list of lawmakers receiving money to maintain the hostile policy against Cuba is long and it includes Democrats and Republicans.
