Why were Cubans treated different when they came to America?

Cubans were often treated differently when they arrived in America due to their status as political refugees fleeing communism after Fidel Castro's revolution in 1959. The U.S. government implemented policies that favored Cuban immigrants, such as the Cuban Adjustment Act of 1966, which allowed them to apply for permanent residency after one year. This preferential treatment stemmed from Cold War geopolitics, as the U.S. sought to oppose communist influence in the region. Additionally, cultural and historical ties between the U.S. and Cuba contributed to a more welcoming environment for Cuban immigrants compared to other immigrant groups.
