BREAKING: DeSantis signs bill renaming Palm Beach airport to Donald J. Trump International Airport

Florida’s House and Senate voted overwhelmingly in February in support of the renaming, with the House voting 81-30 in favor and the Senate 25-11 in favor. The renaming is contingent on FAA approval and an agreement between Palm Beach County and Trump to use his name.

US Representative Brian Mast of Florida’s 21st Congressional District has introduced legislation at the federal level to codify the name change and ensure coordination across aviation agencies. He said in a statement, "President Donald J. Trump’s impact on our nation will transcend our time—a historic legacy of dedication and commitment toward the American people. He’s called Palm Beach County ‘home’ for many years, and this designation reflects our gratitude for his public service and leadership."

Florida State Rep Meg Weinberger, who brought forth the bill, said in a House committee meeting that the renaming honors "leadership and legacy," and noted that Palm Beach "is the home of the President" and the airport is "just down the street from where he lives."

"He’s a two-term President. It will happen in his lifetime. Why not honor him while he’s the President in his hometown? And this is the first President that we’ve had in Florida," she said.
