Plain-language change summary

The amendments to Bill SB 53 simplify the language regarding the management of state parks. Previously, the focus was on making parks self-supporting, but the revision emphasizes making parks affordable, accessible, and inclusive for all New Mexico residents. This shift is important because it aims to ensure that everyone can enjoy the state's natural resources, not just those who can afford higher fees, promoting a broader use and appreciation of the parks.
