I just finished the book "Unified: How Our Unlikely Friendship Gives Us Hope for a Divided Country", by Senator Tim Scott and US Representative Trey Gowdy, both from South Carolina.

DENISON ON CUBA: according to a white paper for the US Commission on International Religious Freedom, attacks on religious freedom are escalating in Cuba: “virtually all independent faith leaders say they are actively repressed.” Many are facing death threats, violence, detentions, harassing phone calls, repeated summons to appear before authorities, and acts of repudiation. Faith organizations are targets of high utility rates and tariffs that are “choking” operations. Faith leaders are discriminated against in access to education and employment; police interrupt religious services; Christians’ goods are arbitrarily confiscated.
