Link: Juneau Empire Representatives of the struggling Alaska tourism industry sought additional marketing money from the state House Finance Committee on Wednesday. "We all know that you've got to spend money to make money," said Wade Willis of Anchorage's Vision Quest Adventures. Caleb Alderman of Anchorage Trolley was accused by one legislator of threatening the committee when Alderman called for replacing legislators who won't add money to the tourism marketing pot. "Rep. Alan Austerman, R-Kodiak, corrected Alderman, pointing out that the state already provided $8 million to $9 million for marketing," the Empire reports. Alderman then backed off his threat and praised legislators instead.
