Judge Orders Kennedy Center to Remove Trump’s Name From Building Within Two Weeks, Halts Planned Two-Year Closure for Renovation Open in Variety.com
Highlights
  • A federal judge blocked the Kennedy Center from temporarily closing for renovations and ruled the board unlawfully added President Trump's name to the building and official title.
  • Congress has sole authority to change the Kennedy Center’s formal name, not the Center's board, confirming naming is a legislative prerogative rather than unilateral branding.
  • Signage bearing Trump's name was ordered removed from Kennedy Center materials within two weeks to protect branding integrity and comply with the court's ruling.
