Explanation

(This amendment requests funding to address the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on tourism and education sectors. Reductions in group tourism, particularly national tour and student groups, have impacted visitation levels resulting in the erosion of non-general fund revenues. Funding will target proven marketing strategies to increase exposure to in-state and out-of-state markets to address the regional group tourism business. Visitation supports non-general fund revenue generation that provides a significant share of the agency operating budget.)
