Trump Administration Renames Gulf of Mexico to 'Gulf of America,' Restores Mount McKinley's Name
Jan 25, 2025, 02:48 AM
On Tuesday, the US Coast Guard began referring to the Gulf of Mexico as the "Gulf of America," following an executive order signed by President Donald Trump on Monday to officially rename the body of water. The Interior Department announced that the name change is effective immediately, emphasizing that the Gulf is "one of the nation's most important assets in history and economy." Additionally, the highest peak in North America, Alaska's Denali, has been renamed back to Mount McKinley, reversing an Obama-era decision from 2015. The administration stated that these changes are intended to preserve American heritage and honor historical figures. The moves have sparked debates over patriotism and cultural heritage.
