Key Points

Would require federal land agencies to offer a free annual parks and recreation pass to law enforcement officers and firefighters.
Keeps the current free annual pass for members of the Armed Forces and their dependents, and adds these two groups to the same benefit.
Covers eligible workers at the federal, state, local, and Tribal levels, as long as they can show proof they qualify.
If you qualify, this could lower or remove entry and day-use fees at many national parks and other federal recreation sites.
