IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

February 13, 2025

Mr. Alford submitted the following resolution; which was referred to
the Committee on Natural Resources

_______________________________________________________________________

RESOLUTION

Expressing support for the designation of February 9, 2025, as the
first ever ``Gulf of America Day'' and celebrating the importance of
changing the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America.

Whereas, on January 20, 2025, President Trump signed Executive Order 14172
(``Restoring Names That Honor American Greatness''), which required the
Secretary of the Interior, acting pursuant to take all appropriate
actions to rename as the ``Gulf of America'' the United States
Continental Shelf area bounded on the northeast, north, and northwest by
the States of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida and
extending to the seaward boundary with Mexico and Cuba in the area
formerly named as the Gulf of Mexico;
Whereas the area formerly known as the Gulf of Mexico has long been an integral
asset to the once burgeoning Nation and has remained an indelible part
of America;
Whereas February 9, 2025, marks President Trump's first visit to the Gulf of
America since its renaming; and
Whereas, as President Trump restores American pride in the history of American
greatness, it is fitting and appropriate for this great Nation to come
together and commemorate this momentous occasion and the renaming of the
Gulf of America: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--

(1) expresses support for the designation of the first ever
``Gulf of America Day''; and

(2) celebrates the importance of changing the Gulf of
Mexico to the Gulf of America.
