Trump to Rename Gulf of Mexico "Gulf of America," Denali "Mount McKinley" in First Executive Orders
Jan 20, 2025, 03:09 PM
President Donald Trump is expected to sign executive orders in the first hours after his inauguration to rename the Gulf of Mexico as the "Gulf of America" and to restore Alaska's Mount Denali to its former name, Mount McKinley. According to reports from the New York Post and ABC News, these renaming initiatives are part of the initial set of executive actions planned by the Trump administration. During a news conference at Mar-a-Lago, Trump described the change as a "beautiful" improvement. The Gulf of Mexico, which borders several U.S. states including Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida, would be officially redesignated to reflect national interests. Mount Denali, the highest peak in North America, was renamed from Mount McKinley to Denali in 2015 by President Barack Obama; Trump's executive order would revert it to honor President William McKinley.
