National Park Passes: Ban on Political Images

Also known as: Prohibit Partisan Park Passes Act

Legislative Progress

Filed
Review
Senate
House
President

Key Points

  • This bill would change the rules for the "America the Beautiful" pass, which is the annual card people use to enter national parks and other federal recreation sites.
  • It would specifically ban the government from using images of any living current or former elected official, or any other living political figure, on the front of these passes.
  • The change is intended to keep the passes focused on the natural beauty of the parks and prevent them from being used to promote specific political leaders.
  • This policy would only affect the design of future passes and would not change the price of the pass or which federal lands it allows you to visit.
