The America the Beautiful Annual Pass, used by over a million visitors, grants entry to national parks and federal lands. The 2026 pass was legally mandated to feature a Glacier National Park photograph. However, the Trump administration instead inserted the president's image, reportedly discouraging sales and potentially voiding passes if the image is covered.

A new bill, the Prohibit Partisan Park Passes Act, seeks to ban images of living political figures on park passes. This aims to ensure public lands remain neutral spaces for all Americans, free from partisan politics.

U.S. residents should contact their representatives to support this act, ensuring passes feature natural beauty and wildlife, not political figures.
