The current system sells passes only for the calendar year they are issued. Senator Melissa Agard (D-Madison) delivered the following statement on this bipartisan vote:
“This bipartisan legislation is a huge step forward toward increasing access to our state parks. I’m encouraged that the committee passed the bill unanimously today, moving it closer to becoming law.” |
