WASHINGTON, Feb. 17 (UPI) -- House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and other House Democrats are scheduled to arrive in Cuba Tuesday for the first official delegation to the country since President Obama moved closer to diplomatic ties with the island nation.
The group plans to meet with Cuban officials, "Cardinal Jaime Ortega y Alamino, local community leaders and representatives, and American officials at the U.S. interests section," Pelosi said in a written statement.
