Obama and Cuba

I don't keep up with the news and am pretty ignorant of government function and foreign policies so please ignore my ignorance.

Why did Obama shut down political refugee status to Cubans and is that in line with what's granted to people of other countries? I thought that was a policy here, that we grant protection to people from communist/dictatorship countries. I wonder if it's connected to his lifting the embargo. (?) Now that the country is good enough to trade with it's also good enough to live in and therefore nobody should need to leave? Is it a logical move or is he possibly so childish that he just wanted to put some more poop in the bag before handing it off to Trump?
