Congressman Subramanyam Slams Republican Push to Rename Dulles Airport After President Trump

Washington, D.C. – Today, Congressman Suhas Subramanyam released a statement in response to recent efforts by congressional Republicans to rename Washington Dulles International Airport after President Donald Trump.

“It’s disappointing, but entirely unsurprising, that House Republicans would rather focus their efforts on renaming airports to honor their dear leader than tackling the real issues facing Americans,” Subramanyam said. “Instead of renaming our airport Trump Airport in a community that rejected Trump and his policies several times, House Republicans should focus on helping working families, lowering the price of everyday goods and services, and supporting our schools.”

A former Policy Advisor to President Barack Obama, Congressman Subramanyam served in the Virginia General Assembly since first getting elected in 2019. In Richmond, Subramanyam founded the bipartisan "Commonwealth Caucus” – a bipartisan group of legislators focused on finding common ground. He passed landmark legislation to lower toll costs for commuters, issue refunds to overcharged consumers, combat the rise in gun violence, and ensure all students have access to the best educational opportunities. He will continue to deliver real, bipartisan, results in Congress. Subramanyam served as a volunteer firefighter and EMT in Loudoun. He lives in Ashburn, Virginia, with his wife, Miranda, and their two daughters, Maya (4) and Nina (3).
