What this bill does
In plain words · AI-written from the official summaryLets America the Beautiful pass cover two motorcycles
The America the Beautiful Annual Pass gets you into federal recreational lands and waters. Right now, the pass covers one motorcycle plus passengers. This bill would let the pass cover a second motorcycle with its passengers too, along with entrance and recreation fees for everyone on both bikes.
How it affects you
If you ride motorcycles and visit national parks, national forests, or other federal recreational areas, you and a friend on another motorcycle could both use one annual pass instead of buying two separate ones. The bill also confirms the pass covers passengers traveling with you in a personal vehicle.

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.
