MIAMI—Some 85 people gathered outside the city hall in Hialeah, Florida, July 8 to protest increased U.S. government restrictions on Cuban-Americans’ right to travel to Cuba and send remittances there. One of four such actions in recent weeks, it was organized by the Association of Christian Women in Defense of the Family. Protesters carried signs that read, “Respect the right of Cuban-Americans to travel,” and a photo of a book banned by the Miami-Dade School Board for depicting children happily living in Cuba.
