Really.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>The Politics of Family Separation\/Reunification<\/h4>\n<p>The \u201cmangos bajos\u201d of U.S. Cuba policy has always been the theme of family reunification. Cubans, most Cubans, have strong family alliances that survive the anguish of migration. The 2022 FIU Cuba Poll measures the extent and nature of some of these ties when we ask questions about the links that Cuban Americans have with family on the island. Here we present what we learn from these questions.<\/p>\n<p>While the Biden administration has done little to differentiate itself from the Trump administration when it comes to Cuba policy, the little it has done effects the ability of Cuban families to reunite or assist each other across the Florida Straits. In May 2022, the United States announced the resumption of the Cuban Family Reunification Parole (CFRP) program which was established in 2007 and suspended during the Trump years, as well as the resumption of visa granting services \u201con a limited basis\u201d at the U.S. Embassy in Havana. \u00a0In the same May announcement, Biden lifted some of the restrictions on travel and remittances imposed by Trump. On September 21, 2022, the website of the U.S. embassy in Cuba announced that \u201cbeginning in early 2023, the U.S. Embassy in Havana will resume full immigrant visa processing for the first time since 2017.\u201d \u00a0These limited initiatives, all of which had been fully operational before the Trump era, took place after an extensive and lengthy internal review. For the Biden administration, Cuba policy is evidently the equivalent of rocket science.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A large majority of Cuban Americans in South Florida have relatives or significant others living in Cuba. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Migration waves from Cuba to the United States are either large or small but migration from the island has not stopped since 1959.\u00a0 New arrivals provide the top layer of what is a veritable archeological migratory landscape. Even as the foundation layer of Cubans in Miami fades away, but new arrivals continue to build the Cuban American community.<\/p>\n<p>The South Florida community has the characteristics of a true transnational diaspora. Many families on the island have experienced the migration of one or more of their members. Approximately 67% of Cubans living in South Florida have relatives living in Cuba. (Figure1) Unsurprisingly, a higher percentage of those who migrated since 1995 have relatives left behind.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_259738\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-259738\" style=\"width: 939px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/1-5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-259738\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/1-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"939\" height=\"524\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/1-5.jpg 939w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/1-5-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/1-5-768x429.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/1-5-750x419.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 939px) 100vw, 939px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-259738\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Figure 1.

Forty-seven percent of respondents expressed support for allowing all Americans to travel to the island, a figure unchanged from the 2020 poll.\u00a0 The younger populations, those born outside of Cuba, registered Democrats, non-citizens and the post-2015 arrivals are the most eager to support opening up travel to all U.S. citizens and residents (Figure 4).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_259741\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-259741\" style=\"width: 947px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/4-5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-259741\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/4-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"947\" height=\"528\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/4-5.jpg 947w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/4-5-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/4-5-768x428.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/4-5-750x418.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 947px) 100vw, 947px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-259741\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Figure 4.

Close to half of all Cuban-American families send remittances to relatives in Cuba (47%). The most recent arrivals are the most likely to send remittances while the older population group and the pre-1995 migrants are the least likely to do so. It\u2019s worth mentioning that the most recent arrivals have fewer resources to contribute to relatives on the island but, nevertheless, a majority manages to share these resources with those left behind. The old saying comes to mind: \u201cCubans share what they have, not what is left over.\u201d (Figure 7).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_259744\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-259744\" style=\"width: 951px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/7-4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-259744 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/7-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"951\" height=\"528\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/7-4.jpg 951w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/7-4-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/7-4-768x426.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/7-4-750x416.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 951px) 100vw, 951px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-259744\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Figure 7.
