This bill is so unfair to regular citizens like me. Why should law enforcement officers get special recreation passes? It's not right. They already have enough privileges as it is. This is just another example of the government favoring certain groups over others. It's not fair at all.

I fully support this bill. It's great to see legislation that recognizes the hard work and dedication of our law enforcement officers. This will definitely make a positive impact.

I think this bill is a great idea. Giving law enforcement officers a lifetime National Recreational Pass is a small token of appreciation for the hard work they do to keep us safe. It's a nice perk that they deserve for their service.
