Trump-branded commemorative passports will become available across the US
The department is adding 250,000 more books after overwhelming demand and will hold one-day passport events in cities nationwide.
- The State Department announced Thursday it is expanding the 'Patriot Passport' nationwide, offering an additional 250,000 commemorative travel documents featuring President Donald Trump to Americans.
- Previously limited to in-person applicants at the Washington passport office, these travel documents celebrate America's 250th anniversary and were first introduced in the spring to commemorate the milestone.
- Starting Aug 8, offices in Chicago, Dallas, Detroit, New York, and Stamford will host '250th Anniversary commemorative passport application event' sessions where citizens can apply for one.
- The passport features a stone-faced Trump leaning over the Resolute Desk above his signature on an inside page, while the cover displays 'United States of America' in bold gold print.
- This initiative aligns with recent efforts to increase the president's visibility on federal buildings and documents, though traditional passports typically feature historical figures such as George Washington and Abraham Lincoln.
