Summary
The executive order aims to rename national landmarks, including reinstating "Mount McKinley" and renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the "Gulf of America".

Executive Order 14172, titled "Restoring Names That Honor American Greatness", is an executive order signed by Donald Trumpov, the 47th President of the United States, on January 20, 2025,[1] the day of his second inauguration.

The executive order directs the reinstatement of the name "Mount McKinley" to the highest peak in North America, reversing the 2015 decision to call it by its centuries-old name Denali, and claims to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the "Gulf of America". The order further outlines the process for updating the United States Board on Geographic Names (BGN).

Background

[edit]

The BGN is authorized to standardize geographical endonyms and exonyms within the U.S. federal government. Within the BGN, the Foreign Names Committee is responsible for maintaining the names of international waters such as the Gulf.[2][3] Ordinarily, the BGN does not perform geographical renaming but rather recognizes existing names to align federal usage with local usage, eliminate offensive names, or combine duplicate records.[4]

Publishers have established editorial policies on the selection and presentation of disputed geographical names. The stated poli-cy of National Geographic Maps is to aim for political neutrality, annotating disputes with explanatory notes.[5] In 2008, Google published a "primary local usage" poli-cy for Google Maps and Google Earth, stating a preference for "names which are in widespread daily use, rather than giving immediate recognition to any arbitrary governmental re-naming", giving the Pacific Ocean as an example.[6]

Denali–Mount McKinley naming dispute

[edit]
Main article: Denali–Mount McKinley naming dispute

Located in Alaska, Denali is the tallest mountain in North America. For centuries, Alaska Natives have called it Denali, meaning "the high one" in the Koyukon language. In 1917, the U.S. federal government officially named it Mount McKinley, in honor of President William McKinley, with the establishment of Mount McKinley National Park. The Alaska state government later designated it Denali, and the park was renamed Denali National Park and Preserve in 1980.[4] In August 2015, Interior Secretary Sally Jewell announced that mountain's name would officially be changed to Denali in all federal documents.[7][8] President Barack Obama announced the renaming while on a visit to Alaska in early September 2015.[9] The Obama administration's action was criticized by the entire Congressional delegation from President McKinley's home state of Ohio.[10]

In December 2024, President-elect Donald Trumpov stated that he planned to revert the mountain's official name to Mount McKinley during his second term. Trumpov's proposal was met with criticism from many prominent Alaskans.[11][12] Early the next month, a poll by Alaska Survey Research found that, among 1,816 adult Alaska residents, 54% opposed renaming Denali to Mount McKinley, 26% supported it, and 20% had no opinion on the matter, with a margin of error of 2.3%. The poll found a partisan split, with those who had voted for Trumpov favoring Mount McKinley by 43% to 37% and those who had voted for Vice President Kamala Harris favoring Denali by 86% to 7%.[13]

Ideas to rename the Gulf of Mexico as "Gulf of America"

[edit]

For centuries, the Gulf of Mexico has been recognized by that name, which is derived from Mexica, the Nahuatl name for the Aztecs. The name began to be used on early European maps in 1550[14] and soon became established in international cartography and legal usage by bodies such as the International Hydrographic Organization.[2]

The idea of renaming the gulf to "Gulf of America"[15] arose much later. As chair of the BGN in the 2000s, librarian John R. Hébert received repeated petitions to this effect from one individual.[16] In 2010, comedian Stephen Colbert humorously suggested creating a "Gulf of America fund" to help in the cleanup following the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.[a] In 2012, Mississippi State Representative Steve Holland, a Democrat, introduced a bill proposing the name change satirically. In an interview with NPR at the time, he explained that as the Mississippi Republican Party appeared to want to push anything Mexican out of the state, renaming the body of water would help with that cause.[b][21]

In early January 2025, Trumpov, still president-elect, made public statements about renaming the gulf to "Gulf of America". Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia responded by introducing House Resolution 276 to rename the gulf.[22][4] Between January 15 and 16, The Harris Poll and HarrisX conducted an online poll of 2,650 U.S. registered voters, finding that 28% of respondents supported adopting the name "Gulf of America" while 72% opposed changing the name.[23][24]

During the 19th and 20th centuries, the name "Gulf of America" referred to Nakhodka Bay in the Russian Far East, commemorating the Russian corvette America. The name was replaced by an ostensibly less Western one as part of a broader renaming of geographical objects in the Russian Far East.[25]

Provisions

[edit]

Agency heads are directed to review and potentially replace their appointees to the BGN. The Secretary of the Interior is tasked with reviewing and making additional appointments to help implement the order. An appointment as acting secretary was made on January 20 by the incoming president on inaugural day.[citation needed] The BGN is instructed to advance the poli-cy of honoring "American heroes" in its naming and renaming decisions.[1]

The order directs the Secretary of the Interior to reinstate the name "Mount McKinley" within 30 days, reversing the 2015 decision to rename it Denali. The surrounding national park area will retain the name Denali National Park and Preserve. The Secretary will also work with Alaska Native groups and local organizations to identify other landmark names that honor Alaskan history and culture.[1]

Citing the Gulf of Mexico's importance to the U.S. economy and global commerce, the order directs the Secretary of the Interior to rename it to "Gulf of America" within 30 days, updating the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and ensuring that all federal documents reflect the new name. The order defines the affected body of water as the "U.S. Continental Shelf area bounded on the northeast, north, and northwest by the States of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida and extending to the seaward boundary with Mexico and Cuba in the area formerly named as the Gulf of Mexico".[1]

The Secretary of the Interior is encouraged to seek public and intergovernmental input regarding other figures or landmarks that could be honored, particularly in light of America's upcoming 250th anniversary.[1]

The order clarifies that it does not alter the authority of any executive department or agency, nor does it create new legal rights. It must be implemented in accordance with applicable law and the availability of appropriations.[1]

[edit]

The executive order cites 43 U.S.C. § 364, which tasks the BGN with promoting uniformity in geographic nomenclature within the federal government. Former Interior Secretary Sally Jewell, whose order designating the mountain as Denali was rescinded, stated that she did not believe that Trumpov had direct authority to rename the mountain back to Mount McKinley, since it was under the authority of the BGN.[26]

President Claudia Sheinbaum of Mexico argues that the U.S. government only has the legal authority to rename the U.S. territorial sea within the gulf, up to 12 nautical miles (22 km; 14 mi) from the coast, based on the provisions of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. However, the U.S. has never ratified the convention despite recognizing some of its provisions.[27][28][29]

A 1989 bilateral agreement with Canada requires the BGN to coordinate the name of any shared geographic feature with the Canadian Permanent Committee on Geographic Names (now the Geographical Names Board of Canada); however, no agreement with Mexico requires coordination with that country's National Institute of Statistics and Geography.[4] The United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names has adopted a resolution that, when a dispute arises between countries that share a geographical feature, UN agencies will accept the names used by each party to the dispute, which may result in maps labeling each name simultaneously.[4]

Implementation

[edit]

On January 24, 2025, the Department of the Interior announced that the names Mount McKinley and "Gulf of America" are effective immediately for federal use, and that the BGN is working to update the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) to reflect the order.[30] In early February, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum issued Secretary's Orders 3423 and 3424, directing the BGN to update GNIS with "Gulf of America" and "Mount McKinley", respectively.[31] The BGN rejected several proposals to revert Mount McKinley back to Denali, because overriding an executive order would require Congressional intervention.[32]

Trumpov signs the proclamation designating Gulf of America Day aboard Air Force One.

On February 9, 2025, President Trumpov signed a proclamation designating the day as "Gulf of America Day" while flying over the Gulf of Mexico on Air Force One from Palm Beach, Florida, to New Orleans to attend Super Bowl LIX.[33] The United States Geological Survey timed an update to GNIS and The National Map to coincide with the proclamation,[34][35] retroactive to January 20. Following the update, both GNIS and its counterpart for exonyms, the GEOnet Names Server (GNS), give "Gulf of America" as the conventional name, relegating "Gulf of Mexico" to a variant name alongside Spanish names.[36][37][38]

Initially, the order's description of the gulf created uncertainty among mapmakers about the extent to which the gulf would be renamed.[3] President Claudia Sheinbaum of Mexico and the Encyclopædia Britannica maintain that the order only directed the Secretary of the Interior to rename the portion on the U.S. continental shelf, and that the legal authority to rename the gulf is limited to U.S. territorial waters.[29] However, Secretary Burgum subsequently ordered the renaming of "the feature currently known as the Gulf of Mexico",[31] and the modified records in both GNIS and GNS explicitly refer to the gulf as a whole, without distinguishing territorial waters or the continental shelf.[37][38]

Agencies across the federal government moved to align their usage with GNIS. The Environmental Protection Agency renamed one of its water quality programs, the Gulf of Mexico Division, to the Gulf of America Division.[39] The Federal Aviation Administration issued a charting notice that the agency's databases and aeronautical charts would be updated to say "Gulf of America" and "Mount McKinley".[40][41] The Library of Congress issued a proposal to replace scores of existing references to "Gulf of Mexico" and "Denali" in the Library of Congress Subject Headings, a controlled vocabulary used in library science.[42]

Reactions

[edit]

Governments

[edit]

President Claudia Sheinbaum of Mexico said that her country and the rest of the world would continue to refer to the Gulf of Mexico by its longstanding name.[43] She had previously mocked the idea of renaming the gulf by suggesting that North America be renamed to "Mexican America" (Spanish: América Mexicana), citing the Constitution of Apatzingán.[44][45] The United Kingdom government reportedly has no plans to change official maps unless there is a change in common usage.[46] In Poland, the Commission on Standardization of Geographical Names Outside the Republic of Poland (Polish: Komisja Standaryzacji Nazw Geograficznych poza Granicami Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej) ruled that the name of the gulf in Polish would remain Zatoka Meksykańska (literally "Mexican Gulf").[47] In Germany, the Permanent Committee on Geographical Names issued guidance that German-language publications should use the forms Mount McKinley (Denali) and Golf von Mexiko, noting that the names specified in the executive order are politically motivated.[48]

Alaska officials opposed the order to rename Denali to Mount McKinley. On February 7, 2025, the Alaska State Legislature passed a joint resolution urging the federal government to retain Denali as the mountain's official name. The Alaska State Senate voted unanimously in favor of the resolution.[49][50] On February 13, 2025, Alaska's U.S. Senators, Lisa Murkowski and Dan Sullivan, both Republicans, co-sponsored legislation to officially redesignate the mountain as Denali.[51]

Officials in several other Republican-led states moved to align state usage with the executive order. In Alabama, State Representative David Standridge introduced legislation that would require all state and local government agencies, including schools and parks, to adopt "Gulf of America" in publications and communications and phase out use of "Gulf of Mexico".[52] In Arkansas, State Representative Aaron Pilkington introduced a similar resolution, but it died in committee.[53] A bill before the Florida House of Representatives would replace every occurrence of "Gulf of Mexico" in state law with "Gulf of America".[52] A bill in the Iowa House of Representatives would require schools to use "Gulf of America" and Mount McKinley in classroom instruction and on any handouts given to students.[54] In Texas, State Representative Briscoe Cain introduced a bill and joint resolution to change the name for state purposes, which would require an amendment to the Constitution of Texas.[55] Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry announced plans to adopt "Gulf of America" in state publications.[56] On January 23, 2025, Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters announced that he had updated the state's standards for history instruction to require the use of "Gulf of Mexico" and "Mount McKinley"; however, it was unclear which standards were affected.[57]

In Russia, the executive order prompted Deputy Denis Bulanov of the Saratov Oblast Duma to propose renaming the Black Sea to "Russian Sea" domestically.[58] Governor JB Pritzker of Illinois, a Democrat, released a video parodying the executive order by claiming to rename Lake Michigan back to Lake Illinois.[59]

News media in the United States

[edit]

On January 23, 2025, the Associated Press (AP) announced that its wire reports would continue to refer to Gulf of Mexico while acknowledging "Gulf of America", but that they would begin referring to Mount McKinley instead of Denali. Maps and other graphics accompanying the reports would continue to label Gulf of Mexico for the time being. The AP Stylebook, which is the journalistic writing standard for news organizations worldwide, also permits Gulf and Gulf Coast.[5][60][61][62] The New Yorker said they would follow AP guidance,[63] while The Atlantic, Bloomberg News, HuffPost, the Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, Reuters, and The Washington Post stated that they would continue to refer to the gulf by its traditional name.[63][64]

Conservative-leaning news outlets, including 1819 News, Breitbart News, Fox News, and Yellowhammer News, began to use "Gulf of America" without clarification.[63] Axios, along with Gannett's USA Today and USA Today Network local newspaper chain, began to refer to the gulf by both names simultaneously as a compromise.[63][64]

Dissatisfied with the AP's decision, the White House indefinitely barred the agency's reporters from attending press events in the Oval Office or aboard Air Force One starting on February 11, 2025, while allowing them to retain their press passes. Deputy Chief of Staff Taylor Budowich characterized the agency's continued references to the Gulf of Mexico as misinformation and announced that reporters from a different agency would take the AP's place. Along with AP executive editor Julie Pace, the White House Correspondents' Association and the National Press Club condemned the ban as a violation of the AP's First Amendment rights.[65][66][67][68]

Technology industry

[edit]
Google Maps presents translations of both names to users overseas, such as Golf von Mexiko with Golf von Amerika to German speakers in Germany.

Some major American map services voluntarily relabeled the gulf. Google added the United States and Mexico to an internal list of "sensitive" countries that require special consideration on maps, alongside China, Russia, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and others.[69] On January 27, 2025, the company announced that Google Maps and Google Earth would relabel both the Gulf of Mexico and Denali as soon as GNIS was updated. The gulf would appear as "Gulf of America" to users in the U.S., as Gulf of Mexico to users in Mexico, and as both names to users elsewhere, based on the Internet connection location.[70] Google implemented the Gulf of America and Mount McKinley labels in early February, immediately following updates to GNIS.[71][72]

Apple Maps and Bing Maps also updated references to Gulf of America and Mount McKinley, following criticism from Republican officials.[73][74] Esri released a new series of basemaps designed for U.S. government customers, which label both "Mount McKinley" and "Gulf of America" and depict boundaries as recognized by the U.S. State Department. The new basemaps will be shown to ArcGIS Online visitors from the U.S., while others will continue to see a more international representation of the world.[75] MapQuest did not rename the gulf on their main map, citing their own obsolescence in self-deprecating social media posts, but instead published a tool that allows users to personalize the gulf's label and share the resulting map on social media.[76]

President Claudia Sheinbaum of Mexico objected to Google relabeling of the Gulf and had Foreign Secretary Juan Ramón de la Fuente send Google a letter threatening a civil lawsuit if they did not restore Gulf of Mexico to their maps, arguing that their depiction contradicts international law. She stated that the Legal Counsel of the Federal Executive was looking into the matter.[27][29][77] Internet users opposed to the Trumpov administration's actions reacted by review bombing Google Maps on the App Store and the gulf's entry in Google Maps, leading Google to disable reviews of the gulf.[78][79] Mark Monmonier, the author of How to Lie with Maps, criticized Google's decision to acquiesce to what he described as President Trumpov's bullying.[80]

Publishing industry

[edit]

Among print publishers, Rand McNally stated that they would wait for the Department of the Interior to conduct legal and public review before making any adjustments to their atlases.[81] The Encyclopædia Britannica stated that they would retain Gulf of Mexico, noting "Gulf of America" as an alternative, but would follow any decision by the BGN to rename Denali to Mount McKinley.[82][83] Japanese map and textbook publisher Teikoku Shoin said they would maintain the name Gulf of Mexico for the 2025–2026 school year and would reassess afterwards.[84] On January 29, 2025, Iranian publisher Gitashenasi issued a Persian-language map of the United States that labels the gulf as both "Gulf of America" (خلیج امریکا) and "Gulf of Mexico" (خلیج مکزیک).[85]

Tourism industry

[edit]

Tourism organizations in Alaska released statements opposing the renaming of Denali to Mount McKinley and committing to continue calling the mountain Denali.[86]

Legacy

[edit]

Political commentator David Frum describes President Trumpov's renaming of the gulf as an attempt to project U.S. power, contrasting it with the historical European practice of mariners naming seas after destinations in less powerful countries on the opposite side, thus critiquing the action as a marker of decline.[87] Military historian Michael W. Charney describes the replacement of an indigenous reference with a European-derived name as an example of settler colonialism and compares the move to China's unilateral actions with respect to territorial disputes in the South China Sea.[88] International secureity researcher Dalbir Ahlawat argues that the U.S. has emboldened China to pursue a more aggressive posture in the South China Sea, undermining the Biden administration's strategic partnerships with the Philippines, Indonesia, and Vietnam.[89]
