Summary

The bill creates a state‑run fund to finance marketing and promotion of tourism, events, and conventions, and sets up regional committees to oversee grant distribution. At least 25% of the fund is split equally among nine defined tourism regions for marketing expenses, and 10% is reserved for a matching‑fund program. It also requires annual reports on fund use and park occupancy, and declares an emergency to make the measures effective immediately.
