CTTC Membership

The Congressional Travel & Tourism Caucus (CTTC) was founded in 1979, and from the very beginning, Members of the House of Representatives recognized the economic importance of travel and tourism within their communities and the vital need for a congressional advocacy organization to support this multi-faceted industry in Congress.

With the start of the 111th Congress, Representatives Sam Farr (D-CA) and Roy Blunt (R-MO) are proud to announce a continued focus for the CTTC.  They have pledged to work in a bipartisan manner to promote issues important to the travel and tourism industry and to educate Members and staff about these issues.

The US travel industry represents more than 16 million American workers and generates $1.8 trillion a year in economic activity. The economic benefit of travel and tourism extends to all 50 states and every congressional district, contributing more than $115 billion in tax revenue for local, state and federal economies.

The Congressional Travel & Tourism Caucus’s mission is to formulate national policy that promotes domestic and international travel for leisure, business, student, and medical.
