Embargo of cuba that had kept americans and american money off the island for decades. The latest move just last month, the u. S. Transportation department banned airlines from servicing all cities besides havana. In june, the administration cracked down on cruise ships. Before leaving office, president barack obama opened relations with cuba. And cubans tapped into the Tourism Industry to bring in extra cash. Now, the countrys facing its worst economic set back in years. I traveled to cuba to take a look at the new restrictions and just how they are affecting the cuban people. It was great because, i mean, the flights were packed. People were coming left from right. Soledad sixto andres used to bring throngs of american tourists to cruise around havana in classic cars.

The plan, but others say that they question its feasibility. At San Jose City hall, mayor sam liccardo shares his vision for a customer takeover of pg e, the proposal now endorse bad coalition of elected oefficials from 58 cities and ten counties across california. I think the reality we all have to accept is that as rate payers, as customers were all on the hook for this. And if were going to be on the hook, we better own it. Pg e filed for bankruptcy in january as it faced billions of dollars in liability claims for fires started by its equipment. Next year, a federal judge is expected to consider two competing reorganization plans. One put forth by shareholders, the other from bondholders.

Good monday morning, welcome to squawk alley, im Carl Quintanilla with Morgan Brennan and jon fortt. We will start with uber. They lose their license to operate in london. Regulators citing a pattern of failures from uber that place passenger safety and security at risk cnbc contributor kara swisher joins us to talk about this. How are you doing. Not too bad we will see how the appeals process goes, the big question is whether other cities follow suit. Its a troublesome thing. Uber has been struggling for a long time in these cities and actually the first thing that the new ceo who came in after Travis Kalanick did was go to londer to assuage the critics there.
