Higher Fees for Non-US Visitors to US National Parks

Starting next week, non-U.S. residents will face significantly higher fees to visit popular national parks like Yosemite and Sequoia. The new America the Beautiful nonresident pass costs $250, compared to $80 for U.S. residents. This move, part of President Trumps executive order, aims to boost park revenue and infrastructure, but has been criticized for lacking public input and potentially deterring visitors. Senators from California, Nevada, Hawaii, and Oregon have called for a pause until impacts are studied. Checkout Solipillow.com
