Plain-English Summary

The bill would likely increase fees or create new revenue-generating programs at national parks and public lands to boost income from international visitors, with the goal of funding park maintenance and conservation efforts. This would affect both tourists visiting America's natural attractions and the park management agencies responsible for maintaining these sites. The revenue generated would presumably help address funding gaps for park infrastructure, trails, and environmental protection.
