Dear John,



One thing we learned from the Democratic and Republican National Conventions is that the U.S must reframe its relations with Latin America and the Caribbean. The Republicans talk of the Monroe Doctrine 2.0. They demonize Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua and form closes to coup leaders and rightwing authoritarians from Brazil to Honduras. The Democrats aren’t much better, calling the region “America’s strategic home base.” It’s clear that we need a radically new approach to Latin America and the Caribbean, a new Good Neighbor Policy based on non-intervention, respect and cooperation.



In that spirit, 100 organizations have written letters to President Trump and Vice President Biden outlining what such a policy would look like.

The letter calls for an end to stifling economic sanctions, ending U.S. arms sales and militarization of the region, ending political interference in elections and domestic affairs, supporting the human rights of all peoples, and implementing a humane immigration policy and fairer economic policies.



While the chances of implementing progressive policies in January may be slim, it’s important to outline a positive vision for reframing relations with our neighbors to the south. That way we know what we’re fighting for and can build a coalition around the region as a whole.

Latin America and the Caribbean are struggling from Covid-19 and will enter a deep economic recession next year. We have to join together to pressure the next president into becoming a president for peace.



In solidarity,

Leonardo, Michelle, Teri and Medea
