The agency announced on Thursday that it was expanding access to what it calls the “Patriot Passport” because of “overwhelming demand.” 

“Since its release in celebration of 250 years of American independence, the commemorative passport has generated extraordinary public interest,” the State Department said in its press release. “The Department of State is responding by expanding access so Americans across the country can obtain this unique and special document. The Department is hosting application events at passport agencies and centers for patriots all across our nation.”

Several Democrats criticized the Trump Administration for expanding access to the new passports rather than focusing on other issues, such as affordability.

American citizens interested in obtaining the limited-edition passport must make an in-person appointment to apply for it. Initially, the State Department was only offering appointments at the Washington Passport Agency; but, starting Aug. 8, the department is expanding access so that Americans can make appointments at passport agencies or centers nationwide. 

Earlier this month, the Palm Beach International Airport was officially renamed to the President Donald J. Trump International Airport. While several airports in the U.S. have been named after American Presidents—for instance, John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City—the Palm Beach airport marks the first time that a President has had an airport named after him while sitting in the Oval Office.

Democrats have overwhelmingly denounced the President’s efforts to affix his name and likeness onto government buildings, programs, and items. Several lawmakers signed an open letter to Trump in February objecting to his plans to shutter the Kennedy Center for two years while it underwent renovations.

“The Kennedy Center is a living memorial to President Kennedy,” Rep. Lizzie Fletcher, a Democrat from Texas, said in a social media post, in which she shared the open letter in February. “President Trump’s announcement that it will also bear his name (in violation of the law establishing it) and that it will be closed for two years (for unidentified repairs) show the narcissism and lawlessness that define this Presidency.”
