Latest action on H.R. 9250: Ordered to be Reported in the Nature of a Substitute (Amended) by Voice Vote.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects people who use or manage federal public lands, and foreign tourists who visit them. Park, forest, refuge, and public land visitors could see repaired roads, trails, campgrounds, visitor centers, and other facilities over time. Bureau of Indian Education schools could also receive money for backlogged building repairs. Many foreign visitors would pay higher fees to enter or use federal recreation sites.
Why this matters: Many federal public lands and Bureau of Indian Education schools have repair needs that have built up for years. This bill tries to make those repairs more predictable and easier to track. It also links some repair money to energy revenue, donations, and higher fees on many foreign visitors. The tradeoff is that it gives agencies faster spending and contracting tools, which could raise concerns about oversight, local priorities, and public input.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
