Dodd's Farewell Tour of Havana

10/03/10 -U.S. Senator Christopher J. Dodd (D-CT), who is retiring from Congress at the end of this year, is currently in Cuba.

An outspoken and zealous critic of U.S. policy towards Cuba -- while an under-spoken and passive critic of the Cuban  government-- Senator Dodd is no stranger to Havana.

Senator Dodd's office has confirmed the trip, but given no specifics. Meanwhile, State Department spokeswoman Virginia Staab told Radio Martí that Dodd "is on a fact-finding trip consistent with his role as a senator. As we and others have done, we expect the Senator to urge the Cuban government to immediately release Mr. [Alan] Gross."

We're eager to learn what "facts" Senator Dodd finds.
