JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — President Donald Trump on Monday vowed to rename North America’s tallest peak, Denali in Alaska, as Mount McKinley — reviving an idea he floated years ago that at that time saw strong pushback from state political leaders.

Among the roughly 200 executive orders President Donald Trump is expected to sign during his first day in office is a declaration to restore the name of the 25th president, William McKinley, to an Alaska mountain.

The pledge to rename Denali was opposed by environmental groups and Alaskan politicians, including Republican U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski.

Alaskans say they will never stop calling the peak Denali despite President Trump’s executive order that the name revert to Mt. McKinley.
