Port Miami Welcomes Largest Ship To Date
Roll backs expected to US-Cuba policy during Trump announcement on Friday
President Trump is scheduled to speak in Miami’s Little Havana on Friday where most expect an announcement to roll back advances made to U.S.-Cuba relations relating to trade and tourism made during the Obama administration. As timing would have it, for the 4th of July celebration at the US Embassy in Havana. With expected changes on the way, this shipment may very well mark the end of U.S. companies exploring business opportunities on the island for the near future.
WTDC’s Safety & Security Committee
In response to a number of unfortunate and tragic recent events, Ralph L. Gazitua, WTDC Chairman & MDPD Chaplain, was concerned for the safety of his staff and family. He decided to start WTDC’s Safety & Security Committee (SSC). This committee is intended not just for WTDC employees, but for any of our colleagues who would like more information on how to respond to an emergency situation.
WTDC has organized support from the Miami Dade Police Department and the Department of Homeland Security, which has volunteered one of its officers to inform and train those interested in how to respond to an Active Shooter Scenario.
