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.

    The only way she is going to force the UK into using that stupid name is if they invade and conquer the UK.

        Yes, a second NATO member on the list and one with Nuclear Weapons operating on a deadman’s handle. I’m sure that’s wise.

          Trump would need to blockade food and fuel shipments to the UK. Starvation and failing logistics would soon cripple the country, if no help from the EU arrived. Brexit?
