I don’t agree with a lot that comes out of this administration but am onboard with this decision. The parks are funded by US tax dollars primarily for the benefit of US citizens and residents, so it makes sense to charge more for non-residents. I have to pay more when visiting some county and state parks within the US for the same reason. Also the parks which these increased fees will apply to are some of the most popular parks which are becoming increasingly difficult to gain entrance to as the number of visitors are limited to preserve the nature of the parks. Increasing the fees should help reduce the demand for entrance among foreign visitors allowing more US residents the opportunity to visit the parks.
