The 2019 Helms-Burton Act Twitter Archive collection contains a dataset of tweets collected from Twitter microblogging platform in response to the Trump administration's announcement that the suspension of the extension of Title III of the Helms-Burton Act would not be continued. Title III of the Cuban Liberty and Democratic Solidarity (Libertad) Act of 1996 (known as the “Helms-Burton Act”) provides a cause of action under U.S. federal law through which U.S. nationals may sue any person who “traffics” in property that was expropriated from a U.S. national by the Cuban Government on or after January 1,1959. On April 17, 2019, the Trump administration announced that the cause of action made available under Title III, which has been suspended since 1996, would become fully effective as a basis to initiate litigation before the United States courts as of May 2, 2019.

During the announcement, the Cuban Heritage Collection collected tweets relating to the following phrases and hashtags: #HelmsBurton, #BayofPigs, and #CubaPolicy between April 18 and April 25.

The tweets collected by the Cuban Heritage Collection for this data archive do not represent an exhaustive or complete record of all tweets relating to the targeted hashtags due to restrictions on tweet volume accessed via the Twitter API.

The data archive is available for download to the University of Miami community via the University of Miami scholarly repository. The data is presented in JSON structured text files. For information on accessing the archive, see the “conditions governing access” section of this finding aid.
