Travelers arriving in Music City may soon be greeted by Trump International Airport.
On Friday, Tennessee Republican State Rep. Todd Warner filed House Bill 217, which would rename Nashville International Airport to honor Trump.
The bill would require the metropolitan airport authority to take actions to execute the name change.
Some of those actions would entail the installation of new signs, updating registered trademarks with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), amending all current contracts and legal papers to show the new name, and making changes to references with various governmental agencies at the local, state, and federal levels.
According to the bill, the airport can continue operating under its current name during the transition phase, with the addition of “doing business as Trump International Airport” or “d/b/a Trump International Airport” as part of its official designation.
If passed, the bill would take effect on Jan. 1, 2026.
This is not the first time a lawmaker has pushed to rename an airport after Trump.
Back in April 2024, a group of House Republicans also pushed to rename Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia after Trump.
Rep. Guy Reschenthaler, R-Pa., the House GOP’s chief deputy whip, introduced the bill, along with six cosponsors.
Reschenthaler had previously expressed to Fox News Digital his belief that the country had never been in a better state than during the leadership of President Donald J. Trump throughout his lifetime.
“As millions of domestic and international travelers fly through the airport, there is no better symbol of freedom, prosperity and strength than hearing ‘Welcome to Trump International Airport’ as they land on American soil.”
If passed, it would be the second DC-area airport named for a Republican commander in chief after Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in Arlington, Virginia.
Rep. Barry Moore, R-Ala., previously told Fox News Digital that “it is only fitting that we would do the same for another one of our greatest presidents.”
Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., also echoed Moore and said “I can see no more fitting recognition than naming both airports in our nation’s capital after America’s two best presidents: DCA after President Reagan and Dulles after President Trump.”
