House Republican Botches U.S. Geography While Defending Trump's Gulf of America'
"Rep. Harriet Hageman backed Trump's renaming of the Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America, citing pollution from Mexico as a reason to claim ownership."
"Hageman described the pollution situation near San Diego as an 'absolutely horrific' environmental catastrophe caused by Mexico dumping raw sewage."
Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-WY) endorsed President Trump's decision to rename the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America. She argued that continued pollution from Mexico, particularly raw sewage entering U.S. waters, justifies this rebranding. Hageman emphasized that for over 40 years, sewage has been dumped into the ocean near San Diego—a city located 1,500 miles from the Gulf.

Hageman's statement during a House Rules Committee meeting highlighted her concerns over environmental degradation and ownership of the region.
