Department of the Interior

The Center for Biological Diversity filed a federal lawsuit in Washington, D.C., on Dec. 10 alleging the Interior Department violated the Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act by replacing the National Park Foundation’s contest‑winning Glacier National Park image on the 2026 America the Beautiful pass with a closeup of President Donald Trump. The suit also claims Interior unlawfully created new Resident and Nonresident pass types and relegated the Glacier photo to a nonresident pass, and seeks to block use of Trump’s image on the pass.
