He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:

Joe Cunningham (D-SC), Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), Mikie Sherrill (D-NJ) and Mike Simpson (R-ID) for their work to shepherd the Great American Outdoors Act through to House passage, and also the chamber's leadership for advancing the bill amid a very demanding legislative schedule.
“This prudent and bipartisan piece of legislation should be looked upon as a welcome bright note during an otherwise challenging time in Washington and around the country and world.
Congress is to be congratulated for this measure directing much-needed resources to the upkeep of national parks, and we are encouraged that the administration has indicated its support as well.
