August 2, 2021

 

A bill co-sponsored by Congresswoman Mariannette Miller-Meeks would give all military veterans and Gold Star families free access to national parks for life.  The Alexander Lofgren Veterans in Parks Act passed on a bipartisan vote Thursday.  The Iowa Republican is a veteran who served 24 years in the military.  Access to federal recreational lands is part of the package.  Miller-Meeks’ legislation has 150 co-sponsors and has been endorsed by 60 organizations.
