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.

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

      I voted for Harris. She would have done better if Democrats had more successful legislation to point to.

      But since you don’t want to do jack shit for workers, you have to pretend that all criticism of your shit anti-worker party is the same thing as support for the other shit anti-worker party.
