U.S. Senate Introduces the Great American Outdoors Act (S. 3422)

On March 9, 2020 the Senate introduced the Great American Outdoors Act.

S. 3422 would provide up to $9.5 billion of dedicated funding to be used toward the backlog of deferred maintenance of the National Park Service (& other Federal agencies). This legislation would provide much needed support for the preservation of historic and cultural properties.

Thank-you to Senators Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand for being among the original co-sponsors of this legislation.

Stay tuned for updates including the potential introduction of House same-as legislation.
