Many more parks, including:

Isle Royale National Park MI

Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve

Carlsbad Caverns National Park

according to the article

: The combined total acreage of these 15 parks is 21,657,399, nearly 25 percent of the overall footprint U.S. National Park System,

This may/would result in restricted access to the public

Thirteen million of those acres are accounted for by Wrangell-St. Elias National Park and Preserve alone.

This is an excellent piece of legislation. I really hope it becomes law.

The main reason this bill is needed is that leftists using "preservation" of the national parks as a reason not to patrol the borders. That turns the unguarded borders into trash pits for the illegals. Now if they were really interested in protecting the parks they would see that having millions of illegals stomping through isn't beneficial and that giving up some of the land will increase the total benefit. But they are more interested in keeping up a supply of low cost labor and welfare beneficiaries than in actually protecting the parks. They are willing to sacrifice the parks in order to promote their social goals of adding a subservient lower class.

That is not Glacier Bay, it is Hubbard Glacier.
