Republican Governor Signs Legislation To Name Highway After President Trump
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill that will designate a 124-mile stretch of roadway as “President Donald J. Trump Highway.”
The roadway named after Trump includes the “entirety of State Road 80, spanning from Palm Beach County through Hendry County to Lee County,” Florida’s Voice noted.
The bill also renames Tallahassee’s airport after legendary Florida State football coach Bobby Bowden.

Bowden led Florida State to 14 consecutive top-five finishes from 1987 to 2000 and delivered the program’s first national championship.
The bill signing coincided with a separate infrastructure announcement, as DeSantis said the Capital Circle project in Tallahassee will open in May, about a year ahead of schedule.
The project expands the roadway from one lane in each direction to three, forming a six-lane loop designed to reduce congestion, improve access to the airport and serve as a key evacuation route.
“The Capital Circle project was designed particularly to provide quick access to the Tallahassee airport, as well as alleviating congestion,” DeSantis said.
“He was able to build a program that, for many, many years, was second to none,” DeSantis said regarding the beloved football coach.
Not all Florida residents were pleased about the new President Donald J. Trump Highway.
“I think it’s the most absolute ridiculous thing I have ever heard,” one Palm Beach County resident said, according to WPBF.

WPBF noted:
The road passes through Tice, LaBelle, Clewiston, South Bay, Belle Glade, Wellington and out to Palm Beach.
“If I were speaking to him right now, I would say, ‘Let’s do it.’ It’s kind of a hopeful thing, I’d say, for someone who’s been born and raised here,” Foote said.
“I think it’s ridiculous. He doesn’t deserve it. He has not done what he said he was going to do, and why name it after him?” Marquez said.
The new President Donald J. Trump Highway follows DeSantis signing legislation to rename Palm Beach International Airport after President Trump.
