Holland Visitors Bureau fights to save Pure Michigan funds
Holland officials urge restoration of Pure Michigan funding after Gov. Whitmer vetoed a large budget package. Sally Laukitis of the Holland Area Convention and Visitors Bureau says the program boosts tourism, noting Pure Michigan brought five million out of state visitors in 2016 and supports Holland’s Beach Town area. She plans to lobby legislators to reinstate the funding.
