Executive Order 14172

Executive Order 14172, titled "Restoring Names That Honor American Greatness", is an executive order signed by Donald Trump, the 47th president of the United States, on January 20, 2025, the day of his second inauguration. The executive order directs U.S. federal agencies to refer to the Gulf of Mexico as the "Gulf of America" and Denali, the highest mountain in North America, as "Mount McKinley" (its federal designation from 1917 to 2015). The order further outlines the process for updating the United States Board on Geographic Names (BGN). The executive order is not binding on U.S. state governments and the private sector, although several major online map platforms, U.S.-based media outlets, and Republican-led state governments voluntarily moved to adopt the names outlined in the order. Many governments internationally, including Mexico, continue to use "Gulf of Mexico" rather than the new name.
