S 3429 United States Senate · 119th Congress

Encouraging Public Service in Our National Parks and Public Land Act

This bill mandates free admission to all national parks and public lands on six specific annual dates, including Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Juneteenth, and Veterans Day. It directly affects all visitors to these sites by eliminating entrance fees on those days, encouraging broader public access and engagement. The key provision replaces the Secretary's previous discretion with a legal requirement for these six designated days each year. The law aims to align fee-free access with meaningful dates that promote community service and national celebration.
