Cuba is not a tourist destination. Cuba is a nation where millions of people have lived for decades without basic freedoms under a communist dictatorship. Standing outside the United Nations today, my message is simple: the world must not ignore the reality facing the Cuban people. For more than 67 years, the Cuban regime has denied fundamental freedoms, imprisoned dissidents, silenced independent voices, and forced generations of Cubans to flee their homeland in search of liberty and opportunity. It is a contradiction for a regime accused by many human rights organizations of serious human rights violations to hold positions of influence within international human rights bodies. The focus should be on the Cuban people and their right to freedom, democracy, free elections, freedom of expression, freedom of religion, and respect for human rights. The world must stop looking away. The Cuban people deserve freedom, dignity, and the opportunity to determine their own future. Cuba no es un destino turístico. Cuba es una nación donde millones de personas han vivido durante décadas sin libertades fundamentales bajo una dictadura comunista. Frente a las Naciones Unidas hoy, mi mensaje es simple: el mundo no puede seguir ignorando la realidad que vive el pueblo cubano. Por más de 67 años, el régimen cubano ha negado libertades fundamentales, ha encarcelado a disidentes, ha silenciado voces independientes y ha obligado a generaciones de cubanos a abandonar su patria en busca de libertad y oportunidades. Es una contradicción que un régimen señalado por numerosas organizaciones de derechos humanos por graves violaciones de los derechos humanos ocupe posiciones de influencia dentro de organismos internacionales dedicados precisamente a la defensa de esos derechos. El enfoque debe estar en el pueblo cubano y en su derecho a la libertad, la democracia, las elecciones libres, la libertad de expresión, la libertad religiosa y el respeto a los derechos humanos. El mundo debe dejar de mirar hacia otro lado. El pueblo cubano merece libertad, dignidad y la oportunidad de decidir su propio futuro.

The Cuban regime wants the world to believe that new promises will solve the crisis facing the Cuban people. But after 67 years of broken promises, the reality is impossible to hide. Cuba is suffering through one of the worst energy, economic, and humanitarian crises in its history. Families endure daily blackouts. Food and medicine are scarce. Basic services are collapsing. Millions of Cubans have been forced to leave their homeland in search of freedom and opportunity. Miguel Díaz-Canel can announce new plans, new promises, and new slogans, but the problem is not a lack of government programs. The problem is a failed communist socialist system that has denied freedom, crushed private enterprise, and silenced those who dare to speak the truth. The Cuban people do not need more propaganda. They need freedom. They need democracy. They need free elections, respect for human rights, economic opportunity, and the ability to determine their own future. The solution to Cuba’s crisis is not another government package. The solution is ending the communist socialist dictatorship and allowing the Cuban people to live in liberty. Let us be clear: the communist socialist dictatorship in Cuba is not only a threat to the Cuban people. It is also a national security risk to the United States of America through its alliances with hostile foreign actors, its support for anti-democratic movements, and its continued efforts to undermine freedom and stability throughout our hemisphere. As Miami-Dade County Tax Collector, I will continue putting the people of Miami-Dade County first. We will continue defending our community, upholding the rule of law, protecting the values that make America exceptional, and standing firmly against those who threaten our freedom and security. God bless the Cuban people, God bless Miami-Dade County, and God bless the United States of America.

From the United Nations, I want to send a clear message to the world: Cuba is not a tourist destination. Cuba is a prison, a concentration camp controlled by the murderous Castro communist socialist dictatorship that has oppressed, silenced, imprisoned, and separated families for more than six decades. While tourists enjoy beaches and hotels, millions of Cubans live without freedom, without basic rights, without free elections, and under constant fear, surveillance, and repression. The United Nations cannot continue being silent or acting as accomplices to a dictatorship that violates human rights every single day. The suffering of the Cuban people is real and the world must stop ignoring it. Freedom for Cuba is not politics. It is a human rights issue. Desde las Naciones Unidas quiero enviar un mensaje claro al mundo: Cuba no es un destino turístico. Cuba es una cárcel, un campo de concentración controlado por la dictadura comunista socialista asesina de los Castro que ha oprimido, silenciado, encarcelado y separado familias por más de seis décadas. Mientras turistas disfrutan de playas y hoteles, millones de cubanos viven sin libertad, sin derechos básicos, sin elecciones libres y bajo miedo, vigilancia y represión constante. Las Naciones Unidas no pueden seguir guardando silencio ni actuando como cómplices de una dictadura que viola los derechos humanos todos los días. El sufrimiento del pueblo cubano es real y el mundo debe dejar de ignorarlo. La libertad de Cuba no es política, es un tema de derechos humanos. #DarielFernandezTaxCollector #thepeopleguy #Cuba #PatriaYVida #FreedomForCuba

Today in Havana, the sound of pots and pans echoes through the streets as the Cuban people rise in protest against a murderous communist socialist dictatorship. These are not isolated voices, this is a nation demanding freedom, dignity, and the right to live without repression. While the regime continues to silence and control, the people are speaking louder than ever. No electricity, no food, no opportunities, and no freedom, yet the courage of the Cuban people cannot be turned off. This is not about politics, this is about human rights and the future of a nation. The people of Cuba are making it clear, they want change, they want liberty, and they want the end of that dictatorship. The world must pay attention. Hoy en La Habana se escucha el ruido de los calderos en las calles mientras el pueblo cubano se levanta en protesta contra una dictadura comunista socialista asesina. No son voces aisladas, es un pueblo entero exigiendo libertad, dignidad y el derecho a vivir sin represión. Mientras el régimen intenta silenciar y controlar, el pueblo está hablando más fuerte que nunca. Sin electricidad, sin comida, sin oportunidades y sin libertad, pero el valor del pueblo cubano no se puede apagar. Esto no es política, esto es derechos humanos y el futuro de una nación. El pueblo de Cuba lo está dejando claro, quiere cambio, quiere libertad y quiere el fin de esa dictadura. El mundo tiene que prestar atención. #DarielFernandezTaxCollector #thepeopleguy

🚨 News Alert 🚨 Today I took decisive action to revoke Local Business Tax licenses for businesses illegally engaging in commerce with the Cuban communist dictatorship. Miami-Dade County will not be used as a platform to finance or sustain a regime that represses its people and violates federal law. After clear warnings and full due process, my office is now enforcing the law. Businesses that failed to demonstrate lawful federal authorization are no longer permitted to operate in Miami-Dade County, effective immediately. This is about accountability, respect for the rule of law, and standing firmly against tyranny. As a Cuban immigrant, I know firsthand the cost of this regime’s abuses, and I will not allow our community to be complicit. More enforcement actions will follow. 🚨 Alerta de Noticias 🚨 Hoy tomé una acción decisiva para revocar licencias de Impuesto Local a Negocios de empresas que participan ilegalmente en comercio con la dictadura comunista cubana. El Condado de Miami-Dade no será utilizado como plataforma para financiar ni sostener a un régimen que reprime a su pueblo y viola la ley federal. Luego de advertencias claras y un debido proceso completo, mi oficina está haciendo cumplir la ley. Las empresas que no pudieron demostrar autorización federal válida ya no pueden operar legalmente en el Condado de Miami-Dade, con efecto inmediato. Esto se trata de responsabilidad, respeto al estado de derecho y de mantenernos firmes contra la tiranía. Como inmigrante cubano, conozco de primera mano el costo de los abusos de este régimen y no permitiré que nuestra comunidad sea cómplice. Habrá más acciones de cumplimiento. #DarielFernandezTaxCollector #thepeopleguy #MiamiDade #NewsAlert Donald J.

🚨 UPDATE 🚨 Last night, someone attempted to destroy the menorah we lit for the first time at the Miami-Dade County Tax Collector’s Office. I want to share an update with our community. The individual responsible has been identified and formally charged. I am grateful for the swift response of law enforcement and for the Good Samaritan who lifted the menorah back up when someone tried to tear it down. The menorah will be repaired and relit. This tradition will continue every year, stronger and more united than ever. Acts of hate will not define us. Light, faith, and unity will. I stand firmly with the Jewish community and with every resident who believes in dignity, respect, and freedom of faith. “Antisemitism has no place in Miami-Dade County. 🚨 ACTUALIZACIÓN 🚨 Anoche alguien intentó destruir la menorá que encendimos por primera vez en la Oficina del Recaudador de Impuestos del Condado de Miami-Dade. Quiero compartir una actualización con nuestra comunidad. La persona responsable ya fue identificada y formalmente acusada. Agradezco la rápida respuesta de las autoridades y al buen samaritano que levantó la menorá cuando alguien intentó derribarla. La menorá será reparada y encendida nuevamente. Esta tradición continuará cada año con más fuerza y unidad. Los actos de odio no nos definen. La luz, la fe y la unidad sí. Estoy firmemente junto a la comunidad judía y a todos los residentes que creen en la dignidad, el respeto y la libertad de fe. El antisemitismo no tiene lugar en Miami-Dade #mdctaxcollector #miamidade #darielfernandez #hanukkah #lightoverdarkness
