Promoting Accessibility on Federal Lands Act of 2024

The Promoting Accessibility on Federal Lands Act of 2024 (H.R. 5665) aims to improve access to national parks, forests, and other public lands for individuals with disabilities. The bill requires the Department of the Interior and the Department of Agriculture to conduct a comprehensive assessment of existing trails, campsites, and facilities to identify barriers to accessibility. Based on these findings, the agencies would be required to develop a strategy to upgrade infrastructure and provide better digital information to help visitors plan their trips according to their specific mobility needs.
