John, we congratulate our friend John Couriel, appointed today to the Florida Supreme Court by Governor Ron DeSantis!

"Great decision by Governor DeSantis. John is one of the most intelligent, genuine people around and will make a phenomenal Justice in the Florida Supreme Court," said West Miami Vice Mayor Eric Diaz-Padron.
We also congratulate Judge Renatha Francis on her appointment today to the Florida Supreme Court by Gov. Ron DeSantis.

"Judge Francis is an excellent choice by Governor Ron DeSantis! Her remarks today were inspirational. Born in Jamaica and raised by a single mother, she is an example to Florida’s children from diverse backgrounds that they too can dream and one day serve on the highest court of the state," said Florida Federation of Young Republicans Chairwoman Jessica Fernandez.

CHINA & COVID ()
Last year, we succeeded in shutting down the Confucius Institute at Miami-Dade College and in banning Chinese companies from participating in the billion dollar Baylink transit RFP. Check out the latest op-ed from our MiamiYRs President Armando Ibarra:

OP-ED: China intentionally infected the world. America must take action.
The threat from the communist Chinese dictatorship has hit a tipping point. Global freedom, security, peace, and prosperity hang in the balance.
By Armando J. Ibarra ([link removed])

More than 320,000 people have died from COVID-19 across the world, with thousands more added every day. The pandemic has caused tens of trillions of dollars of economic damages, overwhelmed healthcare systems, plunged most countries into severe recessions, devastated hundreds of thousands of businesses, and forced tens of millions of families into layoffs and financial ruin.
From the beginning, the Chinese regime’s response to the Wuhan outbreak was designed to intentionally disseminate the virus abroad and ensure that pain was felt globally, aiming to destabilize the international system and exploit political and economic disruption to advance their hegemonic intentions...

TRUMP 20 DE MAYO ()
Presidential message on Cuban Independence Day 2020: ([link removed])

On Cuban Independence Day, we recognize the patriots who fought to liberate Cuba from its colonial oppression and build a society founded on freedom. We continue to stand with the Cuban people as they seek those fundamental rights, and we express our commitment to supporting them as they continue to fight for freedom and democracy.

The United States has historic ties to the Cuban people and remains in solidarity with the millions who have fled the oppression of Cuba’s tyrannical regime in search of a new life. Cuba’s people deserve a government that promotes individual liberties, basic human rights, and opportunities to prosper. The Cuban model represents failed socialism, and we will continue to ensure that Cuba does not export its repression anywhere else in the Western Hemisphere. That is why I took action early in my Administration to implement a strong policy toward Cuba that promotes respect for human rights, free markets, and a transition to democracy in Cuba. America will keep working with our allies and partners in the Western Hemisphere to bring stability, religious liberty, cooperation, and a freer future to the great people of Cuba.

Today, we celebrate the many contributions of Cuban Americans to our American story, and we pledge to continue working with them to secure a better tomorrow for Cuba.
