Burgess Statement on Passing of Fidel Castro

Statement

Congressman Michael C. Burgess, M.D. (R-TX), Chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Commerce, Manufacturing and Trade, issued the following statement on the passing of Fidel Castro.

"Having visited Cuba, I have seen the desperation and destruction that Fidel Castro's tyrant regime has cast over the Cuban people. While the end of this life signals a new beginning for the people of Cuba, all will be lost if the country's current leadership does not learn from the wrongdoings of past leaders to secure a more hopeful future for their people."
