Federal officials issue subpoenas in investigation linked to Cuba sanctions
Treasury investigators are reviewing travel records, messages and financial details from a March Cuba trip involving hundreds of people, officials said.
- On Saturday, the Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control served administrative subpoenas to Hasan Piker and CodePink cofounder Medea Benjamin, seeking financial and logistical records from their March trip to Cuba.
- The Nuestra América Convoy organized the March trip as an international solidarity movement, with more than 600 delegates and 120 organizations participating to deliver supplies to Cuba and support local institutions.
- Investigators are reviewing whether travel planning, coordination, and financing with Cuban entities violated U.S. sanctions laws, which limit financial and business activity with Cuba unless special permission is granted.
- Responding on Saturday, Piker wrote the American government would "rather try to criminalize delivering aid to a country we've starved, than punish the epstein class," while neither has been charged with a crime.
- Additional subpoenas are expected as the Treasury Department and Department of Justice examine whether connected organizations like CodePink and the People's Forum also violated sanctions regulations during the convoy activities.
