@intels5: President Donald Trump has renewed his call for New Mexico to change its name to “New America.” In a Truth Social post, he argued that the change would bring the state greater prestige and raise home values and incomes, without providing evidence for those economic claims. The proposal drew opposition from both Democratic and Republican state leaders. Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham pointed out that New Mexico’s name predates the United States, while Republican gubernatorial candidate Gregg Hull said the state’s identity was not open to negotiation.
