S 5083 United States Senate · 118th Congress

A bill to amend the John D. Dingell, Jr. Conservation, Management, and Recreation Act to extend the Every Kid Outdoors program.

This bill extends the Every Kid Outdoors program, which provides free access to national parks for fourth graders and their families, through September 30, 2031. It directly affects fourth-grade students and their families who use national parks under the program. The key change replaces the previous annual cycle (September 1 to August 31) with a fixed end date of September 30, 2031, and allows the Secretaries to determine the program's start date within a 12-month period. The amendment modifies the existing law to provide long-term stability for the program beyond its original 7-year term.
