Tennessee Republican State Rep. Todd Warner wants to rename Nashville International Airport to Trump International Airport.
Travelers arriving in Music City may soon be greeted by Trump International Airport. On Friday, Tennessee Republican State Rep. Todd Warner filed House Bill 217, which would rename Nashville International Airport to honor Trump. The bill would require the metropolitan airport authority to take actions to execute the name change.
During the transition period, the bill states that the airport may operate business using its current name with the designation of 'doing business as Trump International Airport' or 'd/b/a Trump International Airport.' If passed, the bill would take effect on Jan. 1, 2026. This is not the first time a lawmaker has pushed to rename an airport after Trump.
Back in April 2024, a group of House Republicans also pushed to rename Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia after Trump. Rep. Guy Reschenthaler, R-Pa., the House GOP's chief deputy whip, introduced the bill, along with six cosponsors. 'In my lifetime, our nation has never been greater than under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump,' Reschenthaler previously told Fox News Digital.
Rep. Barry Moore, R-Ala., previously told Fox News Digital that 'it is only fitting that we would do the same for another one of our greatest presidents.' CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., also echoed Moore and said 'I can see no more fitting recognition than naming both airports in our nation’s capital after America’s two best presidents: DCA after President Reagan and Dulles after President Trump.
