Increasing Public Access to Recreation Act
This bill amends federal law to increase funding for public recreation access programs. It raises the required percentage of funds allocated to recreational access from 3% to 10% and increases the annual funding amount from $15 million to $50 million. These changes directly affect federal recreation programs funded under Title 54 of the U.S. Code, which support public access to parks and outdoor spaces. The policy change is a concrete adjustment to existing funding levels without altering program scope or eligibility.
