Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would require the Director of the National Park Service to send a report to the House Committee on Natural Resources within 1 year. The report would outline options for offering mineral-based, broad-spectrum sunscreen and other sun protection at low or no cost in national parks. Options to be covered include public-private partnerships, partnerships with nonprofit groups, and unused funds in the Park Service budget. The report must also address the environmental impacts of any sunscreen provided, whether the sunscreen blends with all skin tones, a plan to raise sun-safety awareness in parks, and recommendations for actions Congress could take.
