US-CUBA-POLITICS-MIGRATION

A man wears a MAGA ("Make America Great Again") hat as neighborhood residents and domino enthusiasts gather to play at Domino Park in the heart of the Little Havana neighborhood in Miami, Florida, on August 29, 2025. Cuba's longstanding economic crises have led to shortages of food and medicine, daily blackouts and waves of emigration to the United States, especially to southern Florida. Under a 1966 law, the Cuban Adjustment Act, citizens from the Communist-led island can obtain permanent legal residency in the United States after one year and one day in the country. But that privilege is changing. Under President Donald Trump's administration, which came to power on the promise of mass deportations, hundreds of Cubans have been expelled from the country.
