Simply put. USTTA must do a better job of showing that its expenditures generate sales for the U.S. tourism industry. Furthermore. it must be a strong voice of policy for this diverse industry. whose success is sensitive to even a tinkering in a number of government activities. from airline regulation to immigration procedures. The United States now boasts a healthy $20 billion trade surplus in tourism. and with worldwide travel expected to double by 2005. we must have a strategy for maintaining our market share. Although our House colleagues have questioned a number of USTTAs activities. there should be no doubts about the importance of tourism to the U.S. economy.
