The parks are under severe budget cuts with almost $600 million needed to help repair a variety of park amenities and management. National Park Conservations Association stated, “There have been more than a 7%, or $173 million reductions in the account to operate national parks and more than a 12%, or $364 million reductions in the total budget for the National Park Service over the last five years” (Garder). Areas that need improving include the multiple trails, roads, certain wildlife sanctuaries, and employment job opportunity cuts. The national parks estimate these expenses to take about 50 years to pay
