A spokesman for Murkowski said in an email to NBC News Wednesday that the senator "understands the motivations of Ohioans trying to honor their native son" but the name change would honor and respect Alaska's indigenous people. Alaska changed the name of the mountain to Denali in 1975.

"At home in Alaska, we just call it Denali because it's part of our history," Murkowski said in a statement Wednesday.
