Apply state traffic laws to motor vehicles driven on roads within national park system units.

One policy goal, tracked across every bill that has carried it.

What’s happening with this effort?

S. 2969 remains in the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources as of October 2, 2025. The committee members must act next to move the bill forward, but most legislation fails because committees do not hold a vote. This bill has seen no action since October 2, 2025, which follows the pattern of the previous S. 4560 that expired in 2024.
