US EditionTrump Establishes Make America Beautiful Again Panel
UNITED STATES, JUL 8 – The new rule removes public comment periods on 193 million acres managed by the Forest Service to speed logging and reduce oversight, affecting national forests nationwide.
- On July 3, 2025, President Trump signed an executive order creating a new advisory panel, led by Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, charged with offering guidance on the preservation of the nation’s treasured natural resources and public lands.
- The order seeks to manage over-tourism by increasing admission costs for non-American visitors and maintaining affordable rates for U.S. residents to generate funds for enhancing park facilities.
- Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, who heads the commission, will oversee these fee increases and efforts to balance conservation with economic development mainly on Western public lands.
- Last year, 331,863,358 people visited national parks, and the Interior Department anticipates the surcharge on foreign tourists could generate over $90 million annually.
- Conservatives have commended the order for its environmental impact, but organizations such as the Sierra Club and the Natural Resources Defense Council remain doubtful because of the administration’s previous actions regarding the protection of public lands.
