“America the Beautiful means wild rivers and majestic mountains, not a headshot of a bloated, fragile, attention-seeking ego. There’s nothing beautiful about that,” said a press release from the organization.
The suit cites the federal statute concerning parks passes that dictates the image will be chosen through a public competition. In the past, they have all been landscape or wildlife images.
The suit also challenges as illegal the creation of a separate pass for residents of other nations.
The Department of Interior last month announced higher parks fees for non-residents: $250 for an annual pass or, for those without passes, an extra $100 on top of the normal entry fee for 11 of the most visited parks. The winning Glacier Park photo will be on the 2026 non-resident pass.
For U.S. residents, the annual America the Beautiful pass costs $80.
