A 1200 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Provides free admission to State parks and forests, and certain historic sites and historic properties for certain veterans on Veterans Day.

This bill provides free entry to New Jersey State parks, forests, and certain historic sites for qualifying veterans on Veterans Day (November 11 or a designated date). It directly affects New Jersey residents who are honorably discharged veterans from the U.S. Armed Forces, National Guard, or American Merchant Marine (WWII). Key provisions require state parks/forests, historic properties funded by state bonds (like Green Acres), and county/municipal historic sites to waive admission fees for veterans on Veterans Day, with veterans needing to show proof of service. The policy expands existing free access for veterans at state parks to include additional historic properties and sites.
