Kennedy Center Trump Name Battle | Tucson News

The Kennedy Center’s legal battle over President Trump’s name on its facade intensifies as a tarp remains up despite a judge’s order to remove the letters — the Center won’t act until at least September eighth, citing ongoing litigation and repairs. Critics accuse the board, stacked with Trump appointees, of defying the court and clinging to the president’s legacy, even as they voted to rename a plaza after him and add more presidential nods if a $100 million fund is reached.

Joyce Beatty warn the board may rush implementation after September 8th, questioning the legitimacy of their votes and how information was handled.
