When dealing with Cuban exiles the United States has a policy often called the “wet foot” “dry foot” and more recently a new category called “dusty foot”. Let me explain what this means

First is a “wet foot” exile. A “wet foot” exile is someone who is picked up usually by the coast guard while at sea. A “wet foot” exile is not allowed entrance into the United States and is sent back too Cuba.

Second is a “dry foot” exile. A “dry foot” exile is someone who was able to avoid detection and has landed on American soil usually in South Florida. A “dry foot” exile is welcome too stay in the United States.

Third is a “dusty foot” exile. A dusty foot exile is a Cuban who has entered the United States by crossing the Mexican boarder usually into Texas. A “dusty foot” exile is welcome to stay in the United States.

There have been Cuban exiles who were tackled by police while in ankle deep water in Florida and have been sent back too Cuba. While there have been other Cubans who have out run the police and made it too dry land for only a few seconds before being caught. Because they made it too dry land their allowed to stay while their slower running friends were sent back to Cuba.
