Rep. Andy Ogles Introduces 'Make Greenland Great Again Act' Allowing Trump to Negotiate Purchase of Greenland from Denmark

Jan 13, 2025, 07:25 PM

House Republicans have introduced the 'Make Greenland Great Again Act,' a bill authored by Representative Andy Ogles and co-sponsored by ten congressmen, that would authorize President Trump to enter into negotiations with Denmark to acquire Greenland. The legislation, formally titled 'To authorize the President to seek to enter into negotiations with the Kingdom of Denmark to secure the acquisition of Greenland by the United States,' aims to initiate talks for the potential purchase of the Arctic territory. GOP lawmakers argue that Greenland's vast resources and strategic value make it a prudent acquisition. This move follows President Trump's previous interest in purchasing Greenland during his earlier term in office.
