Promise Details
Via Executive Order 14172 (“Restoring Names That Honor American Greatness”), Trump ordered federal agencies to replace “Gulf of Mexico” with “Gulf of America” in official use. The directive has symbolic value only and no international effect.
Why it is broken
Executive order told agencies to use “Gulf of America,” but maps, international/state usage, and common practice did not change; initiative was symbolic with no practical effect.
