The Outdoor Recreation Roundtable (ORR) will host a webinar Nov. 20 at 11 a.m. ET on new economic data from the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA). The webinar will cover economic trends, regional impacts, and the sector’s resilience and growth despite economic challenges.
“With the outdoor economy contributing significantly to the national and local economies, the data underscores the need for continued federal investment in outdoor infrastructure and policies that support recreation access for all Americans. Speakers will include ORR members, policymakers and BEA economists,” the organization stated in a release.
ORR and its members will also discuss continued efforts encouraging the U.S. Senate to pass the bipartisan EXPLORE Act before 2025. It was passed by unanimous consent in the House of Representatives in April 2024, the organization said.
