Travelers arriving in Music City may soon be welcomed By Trump International Airport.
On Friday, Tennessee Republican Rep. Todd Warner introduced House Bill 217, which would rename Nashville International Airport To honor Trump.
The bill would require the Metropolitan Airport Authority to take action to implement the name change.
These actions will include creating new signage, changing trademarks registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), reviewing all existing contracts and legal documents to reflect the new name, and updating references with local, state and federal agencies.

During the transition period, the bill states that the airport may conduct business using its current name with the designation “Doing Business as Trump International Airport” or “d/b/a Trump International Airport.”
If passed, the bill would go into effect on January 1, 2026.

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., first vice chairman of the House GOP, introduced the bill, along with six cosponsors.
“In my lifetime, our nation has never been greater than it was under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump,” Reschenthaler previously told Fox News Digital. “As millions of domestic and international travelers travel through the airport, there is no better symbol of freedom, prosperity and power than hearing the words ‘Welcome to Trump International Airport’ as they land on American soil.”
If passed, it would be the second D.C.-area airport named after a Republican leader Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in Arlington, Virginia.

Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., also echoed Moore's words and said, “I cannot see a more appropriate recognition than naming the two airports in our nation's capital after America's two best presidents: DCA after President Reagan and Dallas after President Trump.”
