President Donald Trump signed two executive orders on July 3 aimed at enhancing the U.S. national parks by increasing entrance fees for foreign tourists and developing a multi-agency commission.

The first order, “Making America Beautiful Again by Improving Our National Parks,” directs Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum to develop a strategy to increase revenue and improve the recreational experience at America’s national parks.
