Supported by Council for a Livable World
The Council for a Livable World, founded in 1962 by long-time socialist activist and alleged Soviet agent, Leo Szilard, is a non-profit advocacy organization that seeks to "reduce the danger of nuclear weapons and increase national security", primarily through supporting progressive, congressional candidates who support their policies. The Council supported Mark Pryor in his successful Senate run as candidate for Arkansas.[1]
Agricultural exports to Cuba
In March 2009 legislation was expected to be launched to open the door to expanded agricultural exports from the US to Cuba.
It was expected that US Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus (D-Montana) will this week introduce legislation to congress that would open the door to more agricultural exports to Cuba.
Co-sponsors on the deal comprised Democrat senators Jeff Bingaman, Maria Cantwell, Tom Harkin, Mary Landrieu, Blanche Lincoln, Mark Pryor, Debbie Stabenow and Ron Wyden.[2]
Shutting down broadcasts to Cuba
In April 2011 U.S. Rep. Betty McCollum introduced legislation entitled, "Stop Wasting Taxpayer Money on Cuba Broadcasting Act," which (obviously) seeks to eliminate Radio and TV Marti.
U.S. Senator Mark Pryor (D-AR) has introduced the Senate version.[3]
