Visitors to Washington, D.C., could be landing at Donald J. Trump International Airport if a group of House Republicans gets their way.
Led by House Majority Deputy Whip Guy Reschenthaler (R-PA), a bill in the lower chamber seeks to put the 45th president's name on Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD) outside the nation's capital.
The brief bill text — if it makes it through the rest of the legislative machinations of D.C. — would make the name change official and require "[a]ny reference in any law, regulation, map, document, paper, or other record of the United States" to IAD "considered a reference to the Donald J. Trump International Airport."
