What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Current law requires that vehicles entering state parks or other recreational

sites managed by the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) display an annual or

daily vehicle admission receipt (admission sticker). The fees for these admission

stickers are lower for vehicles that have Wisconsin registration plates than they are

for vehicles that have registration plates from other states.

This bill requires DNR to charge the lower annual or daily fee for an admission

sticker for a vehicle that has a plate from another state if the vehicle is owned by a

member of the U.S. armed forces who is stationed in this state or who is a member

of a reserve unit located in this state or if the vehicle is owned by a member of the

Wisconsin National Guard.
