Taking Part In NBAA Convention
The NBAA Convention in Las Vegas
(NV) is getting an official visit from the nation's top
businessman. Commerce Secretary Donald Evans will take part in the
proceedings Wednesday, becoming the first cabinet member to grace
the annual gathering since 1989. Evans says he'll meet with NBAA
President and CEO Ed Bolen and business aviation leaders to talk
about growing the business aviation industry, access to foreign
markets and trade promotion. After his meeting, he'll tour the
trade show floor.
"We are very excited to have a key member of President Bush's
economic team focused on the business aviation community," said
Bolen. "His interest in the show reflects business aviation's
emergence as a significant engine for our nation's economy."
Evans joined President Bush's cabinet on January 20, 2001, as
the 34th Secretary of the U.S. Department of Commerce, advising the
President on many issues, including pro-growth and job-creating
economic policies, international trade, business concerns and
energy policy.
Evans strongly believes in the free enterprise system, corporate
accountability and corporate stewardship. He sees his main mission
in government as working to create a climate for U.S. and world
economic growth.
"President Bush and I share the belief that governments don't
create wealth and prosperity. People do. It is government's role to
create the right conditions in which America's workers and
businesses will flourish," Evans says.
