They haven't changed the name of the Metro station, either (although Congress debated that, too!).

Not true. Well, maybe the name hasn't
officially changed, but get off the Metro at National Airport and you will clearly see the station marked, "Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport." It happened about four months ago as best I remember.
As you mentioned, rather ironic IMO as he fired the striking ATC's, but it's definitely there. I believe there was a congressman from Georgia who was raising holy hell about the issue and threatening all sorts of dire consequences if the renaming didn't take place immediately ... the details escape me, though.
