Summary
Lawmakers are sounding the alarm over $90 million diverted from national park fees to fund D.C. beautification projects like fountains and fireworks, sparking outrage as parks nationwide face billions in urgent repairs. Critics argue this prioritizes political spectacle over preservation, while Democrats demand transparency from the Interior Department about how park revenue is allocated — especially from online pass sales — amid growing concerns about long-term costs and misaligned priorities.
