Outdoor recreation advocates celebrate EXPLORE Act passing Senate
The nation’s great outdoors just got a big boost. The U.S. Senate has unanimously passed the EXPLORE Act—decades in the making—promising to elevate our public lands experience. Think modernized campgrounds and better access to long-distance bike trails. This isn’t just about nature; it’s an economic lifeline for rural communities, promising jobs and support for local businesses. With the legislation now awaiting President Biden’s signature, it marks a significant step toward prioritizing outdoor recreation nationwide.
