Ending Free National Park Entry on Sitting President's Birthday.
This bill prohibits waiving or reducing entrance fees for National Parks and Wildlife Refuges solely to commemorate the birthday of a sitting President. Citizens planning visits on such dates will generally be required to pay the standard entrance fee, potentially increasing the cost of their trip. The restriction aims to prevent the use of public resources for presidential birthday celebrations, unless the date already coincides with a recognized Federal holiday.
