America the Beautiful Act
This bill reauthorizes the National Parks and Public Land Legacy Restoration Fund through 2033, increasing its annual funding from $1.9 billion to $2 billion. It requires the Interior and Agriculture Departments to prioritize projects receiving at least 15% public donations and mandates new public awareness campaigns about donation opportunities (including during pass purchases at parks). The bill also creates new requirements for reporting on deferred maintenance and disposing of assets no longer serving public interest. These changes directly affect agencies managing national parks, wildlife refuges, and public lands.
