McKinley out, Denali in

[HW3]

I stand corrected....

The White House cited the authority of Interior Secretary Sally Jewell to change the name back to Denali. Jewell issued a secretarial order and signed it late last week.

I mistakenly assumed it took an act of congress to do it, and though it is in the works, it hasn't happened yet.

Efforts to change the peak's name back to Denali date back to 1975. The Washington Post reports that Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) recently added language in a spending bill that would reestablish the mountain's original name.
