Summary

Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is pushing legislation to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, arguing the U.S. military and taxpayers secure the region, making it “our gulf.”

Greene shared the proposal text on social media, calling for federal agencies to adopt the name change.

She linked the renaming effort to combatting Mexican cartel activity in the Gulf.

Trump supported the name change in a 2024 executive order, but there has been no indication of international adoption, including by the UK.

    This is doing WHAT for the American people? The maps get changed; now fucking what? People now have healthcare, jobs with dignity and good pay? They have clean air, clean water?

    This would be a lot more damning if Democrats had something substantive to show on these fronts from their last 4 years.

      You’re right! We should support the worse option because the other one didn’t do enough!
