Florida airport to be renamed after US President Donald Trump

Florida lawmakers have passed a bill to rename Palm Beach International Airport after President Donald Trump.

Axar.az informs, citing CNN, the bill to rename the south Florida hub passed the state Senate Thursday with 25 votes in favor and 11 votes against, all from Democrats, two days after Florida’s House of Representatives passed the measure 81-30.

The bill now awaits Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ signature, and the name change is subject to the approval of the Federal Aviation Administration. According to the text, the act would take effect in the beginning of July.

The move comes as Trump has already applied his name to a slew of things – renaming buildings and government initiatives after himself in ways unprecedented for a sitting president.
