Exempts honorably discharged veterans from recreation passport fees for state parks.

The bill amends the 1994 PA 451 to exempt honorably discharged veterans from paying recreation passport fees for state parks. The Department of Military and Veterans Affairs verifies the veteran's status and issues a hangtag or sticker for park entry. Nonresident and commercial vehicles must have a valid motor vehicle park permit. Exemptions apply for vehicles on highways, used for park operations, emergency, state-owned, law enforcement, or official state business.
