Increased Funding for National Parks

Big news for our national parks! A new bill – based on a bipartisan deal struck between Senate leaders and the Trump administration – has been proposed in the House to increase funding of the Land and Water Conservation Fund.

The deal will “permanently fund the #LWCF” and “would be the most significant conservation legislation enacted by Congress in nearly half a century,” according to Ivanka Trump in a tweet on Tuesday morning.

Under the proposed legislation, the fund would receive double the money it was allocated before. Senators Cory Gardner and Steve Daines reportedly swayed President Trump in his stance on the bill.

If signed into law, $2.2 billion will be directed towards the fund – over half of which will go to deferred park maintenance, which has an estimated backlog of $12 billion. The fund will also collect an annual $900 million from Congress for land and water conservation, which is double what it received before.

President Trump displayed his excitement on Twitter alongside his daughter on Tuesday, saying, “When I sign it into law, it will be HISTORIC for our beautiful public lands.”
