Fact or Fiction: Trump signs executive order to change New Mexico to "New America?"
Americas2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported22m ago
Claims that President Donald Trump signed an executive order to rename New Mexico to "New America" are false. There is no official government action or executive order enacted to change the state's name.
The narrative originated from public comments made by the former president. In an October 19 post on Truth Social, Trump expressed support for the idea that New Mexico should change its name to "New America," though he has not taken any formal administrative steps to implement such a change.
