The tourism industry generates $10.7 billion in wages and benefits, and accounts for almost 7% of all individuals employed in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This is a work force of 400,000 representing our hotels, amusement parks, restaurants, ski areas and stadiums.
This years rally focused on how far tourism dollars really reach into each community. Without tourism, there are a lot of related jobs that will also be lost. We need to restore funding to the tourism industry.
