“President Biden, leave all politics aside and think with your heart. We need help. We are begging for help. No president should have to wait this long to make a move. You have all the power in the world to do so, please help us,” said Dariel Gonzalez.

Maribel Ramirez led the Caravan for Cuba from Miami, about 300 people driving 16 hours to be there.
