Politics aside, wouldn't it wreak havoc with Google Maps, Ubers, and tourists if you have two Reagan landmarks right next to each other? smh

It's fascinating how the party of fiscal conservatism finds such creative ways to waste taxpayer dollars.

I don't like it when they change any names of buildings, streets, schools, etc.

Why do substantive work when you can be petty instead.

I like Gravelly Point. I hope that once the Democrats flip the House in 2018 that someone goes to this GA R-Congressperson's district and start naming things after the Clintons and Obamas.

I thought Republicans were supposed to be about local control. This is so obnoxious. The Georgia GOP congressperson didn't even give her counterpart representing that area a heads-up about the bill.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/virginia-politics/here-we-go-again-republicans-want-to-rename-gravelly-point-after-nancy-reagan/2018/01/17/ecd6726e-fbb2-11e7-ad8c-ecbb62019393_story.html?utm_term=.57cbea26d66e
House committee on Wednesday advanced a bill that would rename Gravelly Point Park after former first lady Nancy Reagan, roiling local residents who are still upset about the renaming of Washington National Airport for Ronald Reagan 20 years ago.

The bill passed the House Natural Resources Committee along party lines over the objections of Rep. Don Beyer (D-Va.), who accused Republicans of forcing the name change despite a complete lack of local support or input.

“I have great respect for Nancy Reagan .?.?. ,” Beyer said. “But this bill is the equivalent of someone coming in and changing the furniture in your house without asking you. First, you would have liked them to ask you, and even if you do like the furniture, you probably would have wanted input since it’s your house.”

Gravelly Point is adjacent to the airport. Renaming it the Nancy Reagan Memorial Park would honor the couple at the gateway to the nation’s capital, said the bill’s sponsor, Rep. Jody Hice (R-Ga.).
