Washington, D.C. – 2012-12-19 — /travelprnews.com/ — Roger Dow, president and CEO of the the U.S. Travel Association, issued the following statement on the death of Sen. Daniel Inouye (D-HI):
“Today, the U.S. travel community lost a close friend and ardent supporter. Sen. Daniel Inouye was a tireless champion for travelers. He understood the important role that travel plays not only in driving Hawaii’s economy, but also America’s economy. He was a key proponent for travel promotion, working to gain bipartisan support for many travel initiatives in Congress. Additionally, he understood the diplomatic tool that is travel – there is no better way to experience firsthand our rich culture than to travel to the United States.
“We will miss Sen. Inouye, and we express our condolences.”
