Leave my name alone Senator Lisa Murkowski keep my name McKinley

Since the Americans had started to populate Alaska they named me to honor a president by the name of William McKinley.  They named me that name.  I am Alaska's tallest mountain and national treasure.  Now Alaska's most senior US Senator Lisa Murkowski wants to rename me Denali.  Please leave my name alone and let me stay McKinley.  That is my name and that is what people will call me.  Back in the 1930's some members of congress wanted to rename Washington's tallest mountain Rainer to Tacoma.  It ultimately stayed Rainer now we need to keep McKinley its name and not changed back to Denali.  It is Denali National Park and Preserve does not need to be a mountain too.  Please tell Lisa Murkowski leave my name alone and leave my name McKinley.
