Washington – On Thursday, the House passed a bill to naming the Gulf of Mexico as “America”, which would code an executive order signed by President Trump to an executive order signed by his second day to its second day.
From 211 to 206 votes, without a Republican support this step, which is the GOP rep. Marjuri Taylor was launched in Green Georgia in January and instructs the federal agencies to update all documents and maps to reflect the name change within six months of law enforcement. It now goes to the Senate.
Even if the name change is code in US law, other countries will not be obliged to mention the Gulf of Mexico by the new name. If this is not code, then any president of the future can reverse the executive order of Mr. Trump.
Green praised the move before the vote on Thursday morning and claimed that “we can do this is an important issue” that Democrats are taking care of the Mexican cartels opposing the name change.
Green said, “It is so important for American people to do this.” “The American people deserve pride in their country and they are the proud of the water they own, we protect us with our military and our coast guard.”

Bacon did not publicly agree with his Republican colleagues, told CNN earlier this week that an attempt to naming the body of the water “seems to be a teenager.”
“We are the United States of America,” he said. “We are not France in Germany or Napoleon of Kaiser Wilhelm i
This vote came with the House Republicans conflict because of the cuts of Medicaid and other social security net programs to pay Mr. Trump’s taxes, border security and fuel agendas.
“Instead of arguing with this extremely important and destructive law, they are talking about this deeply extraordinary bill for naming a water today,” a Democrat Rep California. Jared Huffman said before the vote on Thursday. “A Congress that is more and more just a joke, it is now moving a bill that literally started as a joke.”
An estimate of the neutral Congressional Budget Office shows that federal documents and maps will cost less than $ 500,000 for more than five years. However, during the meeting of a House Rules Committee on Monday to take this step forward, the Democrats mentioned that schools, libraries and municipalities will cost the cost of updating textbooks, marks and other materials.
