Senators back bill to boost funding for repairing federal public lands.
U.S.
Senator Jon Husted, R-Ohio, joined Senators Angus King and Steve Daines in backing the America the Beautiful Act, which would reauthorize the Legacy Restoration Fund through 2033 and boost annual funding to $2 billion to address a $40 billion backlog in deferred maintenance across federal public lands.
The bill targets critical repairs in parks and forests, including Cuyahoga Valley National Park and Wayne National Forest, with funding gaps spanning multiple agencies.
While $2 billion falls short of fully closing the gap, supporters call it a necessary step to preserve public lands and support the outdoor recreation economy.
