The proposal would prevent the federal government from naming, renaming, or dedicating any federal buildings, lands, or other government assets after Donald J. Trump. This would apply to all federal properties going forward, affecting decisions made by federal agencies and Congress about how to honor or designate government facilities. The bill is currently under review by three House committees that handle transportation, natural resources, and government oversight.
