Resolution urges the President and the Secretary of the Interior to maintain Denali as the official name for North America's tallest mountain.
The resolution emphasizes that Denali, the traditional Koyukon Athabaskan name for the tallest mountain in North America, is deeply rooted in Alaska's culture and identity. It highlights the historical significance of Indigenous names and the potential negative impacts on tourism and confusion if the name were to change. The resolution also notes that the name Denali has been officially recognized since 2015 and urges against any action to rename the mountain.
