President Trump to Rename Gulf of Mexico as "Gulf of America" and Denali as "Mount McKinley"
Jan 20, 2025, 02:42 PM
On his first day in office, President Donald Trump, the 47th President of the United States, plans to sign executive orders to rename the Gulf of Mexico as the "Gulf of America" and to restore the name "Mount McKinley" to Alaska's Denali, according to reports from the New York Post and ABC News. The Gulf of Mexico will be rechristened the Gulf of America, and Denali, the highest peak in North America, will revert to its previous name, Mount McKinley, honoring the 25th U.S. President William McKinley, who was assassinated in 1901. While the U.S. Board on Geographic Names typically has jurisdiction over naming, presidents can authorize changes through executive orders.
