Why This Matters

The America the Beautiful Motorcycle Fairness Act makes it clear that motorcycle riders can use their pass to enter national parks and bring extra motorcycles along. This helps ensure that motorcycle enthusiasts can enjoy these recreational areas without confusion about fees.

If you ride a motorcycle, you can enter national parks with your pass and bring an extra bike along for free.

Read the detailed summary

America the Beautiful Motorcycle Fairness Act This bill allows an additional motorcycle, including passengers, to accompany a motorcyclist with an America the Beautiful Annual Pass when visiting federal recreational lands and waters. In 2024, the Department of the Interior limited the pass coverage to one motorcycle per pass rather than two. The bill specifies that the pass must cover the entrance fee and standard amenity recreation fee for the passholder and any passengers on the motorcycle along with one additional motorcycle with its passengers. The bill also codifies current Interior policy that the pass covers the fees for a passholder and any accompanying passengers in a noncommercial vehicle.
