We can save state parks through a $5 "opt-out" fee when drivers renew vehicle tabs. That would generate the needed $23 million if only 40 percent of drivers participated.
Under the plan being floated around the Legislature, drivers would contribute the $5 unless they checked a box to "opt out." Right now, the voluntary $5 contribution is on an "opt-in" basis.
The alternative is harsh: Closure of some 50 state parks and pink slips for hundreds of Federation members.
So, please call 1-800-562-6000 and urge legislators to support the "opt-out" parks funding plan in the state budget, HB 1244 and SB 5600.
