Subject: | Tourism Week Resolution |
I am planning to introduce a resolution recognizing the week of May 2-10, 2015, as “National Travel and Tourism Week” and May 5, 2015, as ”Tourism Day” in Pennsylvania. Tourism is the state’s second-largest industry, supporting over 479,000 jobs and generating $41 billion in total economic impact from 193 million visits by leisure and business travelers. Many small businesses are involved in the tourism industry, and the hotels, restaurants, bed-and-breakfasts and attractions they run constitute an important and vital segment of local economies across the state. Please join me in co-sponsoring this resolution. |
