Hoeven Sugar Act Extension Hardens U S Cuba Policy
The House passed the Hoeven bill 394 to 0 extending the 1948 sugar act for one year and authorizing presidential quota reductions when Congress is not in session. It freezes Cuban imports at 1960 levels and may cut 1961 imports, signaling a tougher stance toward Castro. The vote reflects broad public support for a firmer U S approach to Cuba.
