Florida approves millions in funding to rename Palm Beach airport after Trump

Florida Eric Trump
  • Florida taxpayers are expected to fund the renaming of Palm Beach International Airport to "President Donald J. Trump International Airport."
  • Governor Ron DeSantis signed a state budget allocating $2.75 million for the rebranding, covering uniforms, signage and marketing materials.
  • The total cost for the name change is estimated to be up to $5.5 million, with additional costs potentially covered by airport revenue or grants.
  • The rebranding, authorized by legislation signed in March, has faced opposition, including two lawsuits citing safety concerns and misuse of taxpayer money.
  • Eric Trump unveiled a logo for the new airport, which resembles the presidential seal, and a trademark deal allows Trump's businesses to sell branded items, with the new name taking effect July 9.
