What it does

The America the Beautiful Act would reauthorize and expand the National Parks and Public Land Legacy Restoration Fund by extending its deposit authorization through 2033 and increasing its funding cap from $1.9 billion to $2 billion. It would modify how funds are used, including prioritizing projects that receive private donations covering at least 15% of costs, broadening eligible lands to include those managed by the Fish and Wildlife Service, and adding new reporting and asset disposal requirements. The bill also prohibits using Fund money for land acquisition, supplanting regular operations funding, employee bonuses, or decommissioning certain roads on federal lands.
