  • The goal of this money is to replace funding that was recently cut by a different law. By restoring these funds, supporters hope to help the American travel and tourism industry stay competitive with other countries.
  • International tourism is a major part of the economy for many states. This money would help pay for advertisements and programs that bring in foreign travelers who spend money at American hotels, restaurants, and local businesses.
