Kennedy Center orders staff to remove Trump’s name
The Kennedy Center's general counsel ordered staff to remove President Donald Trump's name from the institution by June 12, 2026, following a court ruling that blocked the addition of Trump's name to the venue. A federal judge ruled that only Congress can rename the center, which was originally named for President John F. Kennedy.
