The Great American Outdoors Act will provide critical funding to restore, maintain, build, and protect trails, parks and public lands. This package includes full funding for the Land and Water Conservation Fund and an improved version of the Restore Our Parks Act, which funds the trail maintenance backlog for the National Park Service, plus the Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management—two agencies vital for mountain biking. The Senate passed the bill on June 17 and the House is planning to vote the week of July 20.
The tool below lets you send a note to your House Representative to show your support for the bill. It is set up to thank Representatives who have long supported the bill for their expected "yes" vote, and encourages Representatives who do not support the bill to get on board, particularly at a time when communities across the country are discovering the importance of the outdoors and need more trails close to home.
