State Tourism Grant Allocations

EDA American Rescue Plan Travel, Tourism & Outdoor Recreation State Grant Allocations

The below chart shows the allocation of EDA’s American Rescue Plan State Grants, totaling $510 million. The allocation was developed based on the levels of economic injury, defined as employment loss and share of state GDP in the Leisure and Hospitality sectors (NAICS 71&72). The higher the level of economic injury in these sectors, the higher the state amount.

Note: Due to a lack of the necessary current federally-sourced data on the above economic injury factors for Pacific Territories and Associated States, in order to ensure these territories received funding, EDA created a $10 million pool of funding for these territories, and then allocated each territory’s portion of that $10 million based on population.
