Trump Proposes Renaming New Mexico to 'New America'; State Leaders Oppose
US President Donald Trump has renewed his proposal to rename the state of New Mexico as 'New America,' arguing the change would boost property values, incomes, and state pride. He emphasized that New Mexico is part of the United States, not Mexico, and repeated unsubstantiated claims about election integrity in the state. The proposal has faced bipartisan opposition from New Mexico leaders, including Democratic Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham and Republican candidates, who cite the state's historical and cultural identity. Changing a state's name requires state and federal approval, making the proposal complex.
