Over the last few months, Laura Tessier, some industry members, and I have been conducting candidate interviews. These interviews provide the opportunity to discuss issues that affect our industry and find out if the candidates running for the state legislatures are inclined towards support of the Tourism industry and our public policy initiatives. We have determined their relative support by how they addressed the following questions:
While the candidates differed in articulating their position, the following is a list of candidates who were interviewed and have a primary race that have shown support for the Tourism industry. We will continue to conduct these interviews and will provide an updated list shortly after Labor Day for the general election.
