Bipartisan Senators Introduce Bill to Open Travel to Cuba 
----------------------------------------------------------


 
Eight Republican and Democratic U.S. senators have introduced
legislation to repeal all restrictions on U.S. citizens' travel to Cuba.
Democratic Sen. Richard Durbin of Illinois co-sponsored the bill.

Sen. Richard Durbin: "We tried it for 50 years. We said if we close the
door on Cuba, Cuba would change. We did not succeed in that policy. It's
time for a new policy, a policy that we know is proven to work."
