USodolophu waseLas Vegas
Le leta yayiyimpendulo kumagqabaza kamongameli edimaza ukugqithisela kweshishini okwenziwe malunga neenyanga ezimbini ezidlulileyo.
Nge-9 kaFebruwari ngexesha lendibano yeholo yedolophu e-Indiana, u-Obama wathi abaphathi baseWall Street kufuneka babonise ukuzibamba ukuba balindele uncedo lukarhulumente. “Awunakuzifumana iijethi zeshishini. Awunakuthatha uhambo oluya eLas Vegas okanye uhle uye eSuper Bowl kumrhafi.”
I-White House kamva yacacisa intetho kamongameli emva kokuba uSodolophu waseLas Vegas ethumele ileta ku-Obama esithi la mazwi awonakalisa ishishini lezokhenketho lesixeko.
Kwingxelo yemithombo yeendaba nge-12 kaMatshi, unobhala we-White House Press uRobert Gibbs uthe u-Obama wayengenanjongo yokudimaza ukuhamba ngeentetho zakhe. UGibbs uthe umongameli wayebhekisa ngqo kwiinkampani "ezifumana isixa esikhulu senkxaso-mali yoluntu."
“Masicacele into ethethwe ngumongameli. Andiqondi ukuba umongameli uthe, 'Musa ukuya eLas Vegas' okanye 'Musa ukuya eHawaii' okanye 'Musa ukuya kwiSuper Bowl, "uGates uxelele iintatheli kwingqungquthela.

“Kodwa umongameli ukholelwa ukuba kubalulekile ukuba neshishini lezokhenketho elomeleleyo kwaye kubalulekile ukuba … singadendi okanye sirhoxe; ukuba akhuthaze abantu ukuba bahambe,” utshilo uGibbs.
Inxalenye ephambili yomxube
Abameli bezoKhenketho abadibene no-Obama bancome ingxelo ye-White House.
Ileta kaLingle yagxininisa ukuba abantu abeza kwiindibano zesithili, iintlanganiso, kunye nemivuzo yenkuthazo bayinxalenye ebaluleke kakhulu kumxube weendwendwe. Ngo-2008, ezo ndwendwe ziphelele kwi-442,000, emele malunga ne-7 ekhulwini lokufika kweendwendwe.
Le leta iqhubekile yathi: “Kweli xesha lokudodobala kwezoqoqosho xa urhulumente namashishini ethu bezama ukubuyisela uzinzo kwezoqoqosho, into yokugqibela emasiyenze kukuphumeza imigaqo-nkqubo okanye ukukhuthaza indlela yokuziphatha ebeka emngciphekweni nawuphi na umzi-mveliso, ingakumbi lowo unefuthe elikhulu kangaka. kuluntu lonke eMelika. ”

Lo mbono uphembelela ukuhla okungakumbi kuhambo lweshishini eHawaii, “apho siye sasokola ukubeka iziqithi zethu njengendawo yokwenza ishishini, kunye nendawo yokuphumla,” yatsho.
Le leta yaqukumbela ngelithi: “Siyawabulela amagqabaza akho akutshanje akhuthaza ukuhamba kwaye siyakubongoza ukuba uchase naliphi na inyathelo elinokuthintela ngokungafanelekanga ukuba iinkampani zisebenzise uhambo lweCMI njengesixhobo esisemthethweni soshishino.”

- In addition to the lost revenue, the cancellations have resulted in the loss of 694 full- and part-time jobs from all of the visitor industry, according to the letter.
