The vote came a week after Trump on his first day in office signed an executive order calling for the name to revert to Mount McKinley.

The U.S. president's move last week to rename North America's tallest peak has introduced 'a jarring note' into Alaska affairs, says one academic.

The House resolution, sponsored by Rep. Maxine Dibert, D-Fairbanks, says the name Denali is “deeply ingrained in the state’s culture and identity” and urges Trump to maintain Denali as the peak’s official name in federal databases.
