What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, no person may operate a vehicle in any state park or in
certain other recreational areas on state land unless the vehicle displays a vehicle
admission receipt.
This bill provides that a vehicle admission receipt is not required for any vehicle
occupied by a person who qualifies under federal law for a gold star lapel button
(commonly known as gold star family), which signifies that the recipient is the
immediate family member of a member of the U.S. armed forces who died while
serving during a time of conflict.
