Minority chambers support Wright Amendment

Six minority chambers of commerce have formed a coalition encouraging Southwest Airlines Inc. to drop its campaign to have the Wright Amendment repealed. The represented chambers include the American Indian Chamber of Commerce of Texas, Fort Worth Metropolitan Black Chamber of Commerce, Fort Worth Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Dallas Black Chamber of Commerce, Greater Dallas Asian American Chamber of Commerce and the Greater Dallas Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. The coalition said it will voice its support of Dallas-based Southwest moving some of its operations to the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport. ----------- Now why would these chambers support the Wright Amendment and DFW? How does a chamber of commerce come to the conclusion that higher fares are better for their members? How does a chamber propose to its members that an artificial tax on the community is a good thing that needs to stay in place? We would love to hear this. By the way, what about the other "non-minority" chambers - do they agree with this position?
