Bill overview
This bill aims to improve public access to natural areas by reauthorizing and increasing funding for the Voluntary Public Access and Habitat Incentive Program (VPA-HIP). The VPA-HIP provides grants to state and tribal governments to incentivize private landowners to allow public activities like hunting and fishing on their land. Specifically, the bill increases the program’s funding for five years and prioritizes using funds to promote public access to land protected by wetland reserve easements.
