Vice President Biden Highlights Problems with U.S. Visa System Coalition Calls on White House and Congress to Include Visa Reform in Jobs Legislation
The U.S. Travel Association
Share
  
Recent remarks by Vice President Joe Biden highlighted the barriers Chinese citizens face with the U.S. visa system, stating they were "not in our interest" and
that the U.S. should "make it easier for Chinese ... to travel to the United States." The vice president's comments echo calls by the U.S. Travel Association and other business and travel leaders to reform the U.S. visa system, which would result in additional business and leisure travelers to the U.S. and create more than one million U.S. jobs. At an 19 August U.S.-China Business Roundtable attended with Chinese Vice President Xi, Biden said: "I would also like to point out that we have made
much progress, but there are some real and perceived barriers that exist in both countries that have to be dealt with."

IAEE Member Invitation to Association Evening
IAEE
Share
  
Outstanding sales and networking opportunity to meet Association Decision Makers.
IAEE invites you to attend a unique sales and networking
event to meet key association decision makers at IMEX America 2011. IMEX America is organizing an Association Day on the day prior to the show, which will maximize subsequent attendance at the show from this important market segment. An estimated 200 association buyers are expected to attend the IMEX America Association Day & Evening.
On the evening of Monday, 10 October, the association executives attending the education program will attend an evening function, hosted
by IMEX and the Venetian/ Palazzo Resort Hotel Casino. All members of the trade associations* coordinating the Association Day and who are exhibiting at IMEX America are invited, free of charge, to attend this event — the IMEX America Association Evening. This will give exhibiting members the opportunity to meet the anticipated 200 U.S. and international association decision makers who are expected to attend.
IAEE members exhibiting at IMEX America are able to register for this
event at no charge; however, due to the anticipated popularity of the event, a maximum of 2 people from each exhibiting company may register. We urge you to take advantage of this opportunity, since it will probably be one of the best occasions to meet association buyers face-to-face.
Association Evening: Key Event Details
Venue: Venetian/ Palazzo Resort Hotel Casino
Date: Monday, 10 October
Time: 7:30-10:30 p.m.
Clients: 200 U.S. and International Association
decision makers

http://eiemea.certain.com/icca/getdemo.ei?id=1050146&s=_2V00QZLEY
You will be sent an e-ticket for this event from the IMEX America organizers one week prior to the trade show; presentation of this e-ticket is necessary to gain access to the event.
This is a great opportunity, and we look forward to seeing all those of you who are eligible to attend!
