Search 22 U.S.C. § 1465 : US Code - Section 1465: Congressional findings and declaration of purposes

The Congress finds and declares -
(1) that it is the policy of the United States to support the
right of the people of Cuba to seek, receive, and impart
information and ideas through any media and regardless of
frontiers, in accordance with article 19 of Universal Declaration
of Human Rights;
(2) that, consonant with this policy, radio broadcasting to
Cuba may be effective in furthering the open communication of
accurate information and ideas to the people of Cuba, in
particular information about Cuba;
(3) that such broadcasting to Cuba, operated in a manner not
inconsistent with the broad foreign policy of the United States
and in accordance with high professional standards, would be in
the national interest; and
(4) that the Voice of America already broadcasts to Cuba
information that represents America, not any single segment of
American society, and includes a balanced and comprehensive
projection of significant American thought and institutions but
that there is a need for broadcasts to Cuba which provide news,
commentary and other information about events in Cuba and
elsewhere to promote the cause of freedom in Cuba.
