SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The goal of the new Strategy is to improve
the competitive position of the United States in attracting
international visitors and to increase travel and tourism to promote
economic growth and job creation across the United States over the next
five years.
The first National Travel and Tourism Strategy was developed in
2012 and updated in 2019. Those documents can be found here: <a href="https://www.trade.gov/tourism-policy-council">https://www.trade.gov/tourism-policy-council</a>. A new Strategy will provide a
whole-of-government approach to accelerating full recovery and
employment in the travel and tourism sector; restoring U.S.
competitiveness in the sector by encouraging more travelers to come to
the United States; spreading the economic benefits of travel and
tourism across the United States, especially to underserved communities
and populations; and preparing the sector for the effects of climate
change.
ITA seeks input into the development of the Strategy, including on
key stakeholder priorities. The TPC will consider the comments
submitted in response to this request, as well as other inputs, in its
development of the Strategy. Comments should be limited to no more than
five (5) pages total and should address one or more of the following
topics:
1. What can the Federal Government do to improve the competitive
position of the United States and promote growth in international
travel and tourism?
2. How can the Federal Government partner with non-federal
entities, including the private sector and state, local, and tribal
governments, to improve the competitive position of the United States
and promote growth in international travel and tourism? What entities
would be the most appropriate to partner with?
[[Page 4844]]
3. What metric(s) should be used to measure progress in meeting
these goals?
Comments should include a reference to this Federal Register
notice.
Jennifer Aguinaga,
Deputy Director for Policy & Planning, National Travel and Tourism
Office, U.S. Department of Commerce.
