Last week, House Republicans proposed a resolution to rename Washington D.C.’s Dulles Airport in honor of President Trump.
A bill introduced by Rep. Guy Reschenthaler (R-PA) seeks to rename Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia to “Donald J. Trump International Airport.”
A bill introduced by Rep. Guy Reschenthaler (R-PA) seeks to rename Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia to “Donald J. Trump International Airport.”
On March 29, Congressman Reschenthaler introduced H.R. 7845, which seeks to “designate Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia as the Donald J. Trump International Airport.”
The bill currently has six co-sponsors, which include:
Representative Troy Nehls (R-TX)
Representative Charles Fleischmann (R-TN)
Representative Paul Gosar (R-AZ)
Representative Barry Moore (AL-R)
Representative Andrew Ogles (R-TN)
Representative Michael Waltz (FL-R)
In response to this move, House Democrats introduced legislation on Friday to rename a federal prison after President Trump.
This was another low blow from the Democrats and comes after years of Democrats attacking the police and destroying the country with open borders.
And, after years of unprecedented lawsuits against the former president, they thought it would be nice.
AXIOS reported:
A group of House Democrats introduced legislation Friday to rename a federal prison in Miami after former President Trump.
Because matter: It is a response to a bill proposed by several House Republicans to rename Dulles Airport in Washington after the former president and presumptive GOP presidential nominee.
Driving news: The two-page measure would rename the Miami Federal Correctional Institution in Florida as the “Donald J. Trump Federal Correctional Institution.”
- It is introduced by Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.), who represents a district that Dulles Airport falls into; Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.), who represents part of Greater Miami; and John Garamendi (D-California).
Between the lines: The bill is a pithy way to draw attention to the 91 state and federal criminal charges Trump is facing in four cases.
- One such case is in Florida, linked to the former president’s handling of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate.
- The bill also comes after the 118th Congress passed very little actual legislation beyond mandatory government funding bills.
