Gimenez (R-FL) issued the following statement after alarming reports that agents of the Cuban regime executed four individuals aboard a Florida-registered vessel near Santa Clara Province, Cuba. The incident raises serious concerns about the use of lethal force against individuals on a vessel registered in the United States. "I am calling for an immediate investigation into this massacre. United States authorities must determine whether any of the victims were U.S. citizens or legal residents and establish exactly what occurred.
