The bill would only apply to Nashville International Airport (BNA). It details how signs with the new name would be erected and would inform the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) to change all references to any trademarks or patents bearing the Nashville International Airport name to be switched to Trump International Airport, as well as to change all contracts accordingly.
