WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, in the wake of the shocking decision by the Biden-Harris administration in May to allow operatives representing the illegitimate communist Cuban regime, which is a state sponsor of terrorism, to tour the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) facilities and U.S. security areas at Miami International Airport, Senator Rick Scott introduced the Stopping Adversaries From Exploring (SAFE) U.S. Facilities Act. This bill would limit federal funding for events involving officials from foreign entities deemed adversarial to the United States, particularly Communist China, Russia, Cuba, Iran, and other State Sponsors of Terrorism. Senator Marco Rubio is a cosponsor of the bill.

Senator Rick Scott said, “It should infuriate every American that the Biden-Harris administration granted operatives representing the illegitimate communist Cuban regime a VIP tour of U.S. security areas at Miami International Airport, all at the expense of the American taxpayer. My SAFE U.S. Facilities Act will block federal funding for these events with adversarial nations, effectively stopping what happened at Miami International Airport from ever happening again. I appreciate the support of Senator Rubio and urge our fellow colleagues to work with us to protect U.S. national security, and the safety of all Americans, by passing this bill immediately.”

Senator Marco Rubio said, “Under no circumstances should U.S. federal agencies grant security access to those who wish to do us harm. It’s unacceptable that the Biden-Harris Administration has allowed our adversaries to tour sensitive areas, including members of the Cuban regime at Miami International Airport. The United States must protect itself from state sponsors of terrorism who take advantage of this naïve administration.”

Following the delegation of the illegitimate, criminal and communist Cuban regime touring the TSA facilities at Miami International Airport, Senator Scott joined his colleagues in sending a letter to U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and TSA Administrator David Pekoske regarding this serious national threat.
