This is a touchy feely, phony baloney, plastic banana, good time rock and roller WASTE OF TIME!!! I lived in Alaska for four years from 82 to 86. I never heard one person refer to Denali as Mt. McKinley while I lived there. This is already a done deal. Alaska doesn’t need a couple of moronic politicians putting themselves up on the PC pedestal by submitting a BS bill like this. Murkowski the Independent Ice Princess needs to get a life.
After reading your statement, then my statement is correct TODAY!
The offical name is Mount McKinley, but everyone there calls it by it’s original name, Mount Denali.
Murkowski is trying to get credit for doing something, that has already been done, by the people. Definitely a politician - or a boss!
Once in a great while you hear it called McKinley, either way people know what you're talking about.
I believe it's known more as McKinley in the lower 48 and by those not familiar with climbing.
If anything, it makes it to differentiate between the park and the mountain.
To me, it's a waste of time and money to try to "officially" change the name. Nothing but PC pandering.
