NPCA is pushing to get national park bills through Congress this year. Here’s a list of some of the bills that have received bipartisan support — and we hope can get across the finish line.
The 117th Congress has made progress on protecting new park lands that are important for telling America’s stories, notably by designating three sites important to human rights: the creation of Amache National Historic Site and Blackwell School National Historic Site and the expansion of Brown v. Board of Education National Historic Site.
We applaud these accomplishments, and we urge Congress to jump on other opportunities to ensure our natural landscapes and cultural resources are protected for future generations.
Below are eight national park bills that have received bipartisan support in congressional committees but have yet to be signed into law. We’re pushing to get these across the finish line, too, before the end of the year.
