SB5200 – volunteers Pooling Discover Pass hours

Postby warrpath4x4 » Thu Jan 19, 2017 1:38 pm

SB5200 would allow spouses to pool their volunteer hours for the purpose of earning a free Discover Pass.

It is very similar to 2013 / 2014 Senate Bill SB5097 and 2015 / 2016 Senate Bill SB5205.
We came very close to passing those two bills.
There was close to zero opposition, it is just not an urgent issue so it keeps getting kicked to the back of the legislative calendar.

HB5200 link:

there is a hearing scheduled before the Senate Natural Resources Committee at 1:30pm on 24 January 2017.

If you support spouses being able to pool their volunteer hours for the purpose of earning a Discover Pass now is time encourage the members of the Senate Natural Resources Committee to vote YES on SB5200.
