H.R. 9250: Great American Outdoors Act 250

The bill would change and expand an existing federal restoration fund used for public lands and related facilities. It would rename the legacy parks fund and broaden what it can pay for, including deferred maintenance and modernization projects at:

  • National parks
  • National forests
  • National wildlife refuges
  • Bureau of Land Management lands
  • Bureau of Indian Education schools

The bill sets rules for how money in the fund can be used, including priorities for different types of projects, reporting and transparency requirements, and authority to accept public-private donations. It is intended to help address maintenance backlogs and upgrade aging facilities and infrastructure on federal lands and at BIE schools.

It also rebrands the existing restoration fund without changing its current balance or creating a new separate fund. In addition, it requires certain foreign visitor nonimmigrants to pay higher entrance fees: at least $100 for entrance fees or $250 for annual passes. Money collected from those fees would be deposited into America’s Legacy Restoration Fund.
