To designate the Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia as the "Donald J. Trump International Airport".

Summary of Bill HR 691

Bill 119 HR 691, also known as the "Donald J. Trump International Airport Act," proposes to designate the Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia as the "Donald J. Trump International Airport." The bill was introduced by Representative Louie Gohmert on January 28, 2021.

If passed, this legislation would officially change the name of the airport to honor former President Donald J. Trump. The bill does not provide any specific reasoning for the name change, but it is likely intended to recognize Trump's contributions to the country during his time in office.

Supporters of the bill argue that naming the airport after Trump would be a fitting tribute to his presidency and legacy. However, opponents may argue that naming a public facility after a controversial political figure could be divisive and inappropriate. As of now, the bill is still in the early stages of the legislative process and has not yet been voted on by Congress. It is important to note that the ultimate decision on whether or not to rename the airport will be made by Congress and the President.
