What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
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.
