Plain-English Summary

This bill would adjust how the federal government distributes payments to small counties that contain federal lands, aiming to give them fairer compensation for hosting national forests, parks, and other public property that generates tax-free revenue. Counties with smaller populations or less developed federal land often receive smaller payments despite their reliance on federal property, so this legislation would work to level the playing field. The changes would help rural and small county governments better fund local services like schools and roads that serve both residents and visitors to federal lands.
