The Mexican government has filed a legal complaint against Google, objecting to the labeling of a major body of water on Google Maps as the “Gulf of America,” as reported by The Western Journal.

The dispute stems from a recent executive order issued by President Donald Trump in January, which officially designated the portion of the Gulf of Mexico that lies within U.S. territory as the “Gulf of America.”

According to Yucatán Magazine, users of Google Maps within the United States currently see the body of water labeled as “Gulf of America.”

Users in Mexico see the label “Gulf of Mexico,” while in many other parts of the world, the label appears as “Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America).”

Mexico’s government, under President Claudia Sheinbaum, is seeking to compel Google to restrict the “Gulf of America” label to U.S. territory only, arguing that international naming conventions must reflect jurisdictional limits.

“The U.S. government only calls the portion of the U.S. continental shelf the Gulf of America, not the entire gulf, because it wouldn’t have the authority to name the entire gulf,” Sheinbaum stated.

“All we want is for the decree issued by the U.S. government to be complied with,” Sheinbaum added, emphasizing that Trump’s executive order cannot apply beyond U.S. territorial waters.

In response to the executive action, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill Thursday to codify the renaming into federal law. The vote passed narrowly along party lines, 211–206. The bill would make the “Gulf of America” designation permanent.

Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, a leading advocate of the measure, defended the bill’s importance. “This is such an important thing to do for the American people,” Greene said.

“The American people deserve pride in their country, and they deserve pride in the waters that we own, that we protect with our military and our Coast Guard.”

Greene also emphasized that the Gulf is defended and patrolled by American forces and should reflect U.S. sovereignty. “It’s our gulf. The rightful name is the Gulf of America, and it’s what the entire world should refer to it as,” she stated.

Critics have raised concerns about the cost of updating maps. In response, Rep. Michelle Fischbach of Minnesota suggested affordable solutions.

“If a school district can’t afford to purchase an entirely new map, you know what? A sticker would do,” Fischbach said. “Just put that over the top and put ‘Gulf of America.’ I mean, there are a lot of simple ways to deal with this.”

The case brought by Mexico is currently pending, and Google has not publicly commented on the lawsuit.
