Thursday, January 23, 2025

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Addison McDowell (NC-06) introduced legislation to honor America’s 45th and 47th president by renaming Washington Dulles International Airport as Donald J. Trump International Airport.

"We have entered the golden age of America largely thanks to President Trump's leadership,” said Congressman Addison McDowell. "It is only right that the two airports servicing our nation's capital are duly honored and respected by two of the best presidents to have the honor of serving our great nation.”

Congressman McDowell is joined by Congressmen Guy Reschenthaler (R-PA), Brandon Gill (R-TX), Riley Morre (R-WV), and Brian Jack (R-GA) in introducing this legislation.

“President Donald J. Trump, the greatest president of my lifetime, was just sworn into office for a second term after a historic landslide victory,” said Congressman Guy Reschenthaler. “This legislation will cement his status in our nation’s capital as our fearless commander-in-chief, extraordinary leader, and relentless champion for the American people.”

"I’m excited to cosponsor Rep. McDowell’s effort to rename Dulles International Airport to Donald J. Trump International Airport. President Trump is the greatest president of my lifetime, so it’s only fitting that we honor him and the incredible leadership he has brought and will continue to bring to save our great nation,” said Congressman Brandon Gill.

“I am excited to co-sponsor Representative McDowell’s legislation to honor President Trump’s historic victory and mandate from the American people,” said Rep. Brian Jack. “After so many tried to ‘cancel’ President Trump during his post-Presidency, Representative McDowell’s bill will enshrine President Trump’s legacy on one of our capital airports.”

“President Trump has been the most consequential politician in my lifetime. His agenda to lift up the forgotten men and women of America reverberates so strongly with the people of my district and so many across the country. I’m proud to be co-leading this bill with Congressman McDowell and hope to see it voted on the floor of the People’s House soon,” said Congressman Riley Moore.
