A judge has ruled that President Donald Trump's name will be removed from the exterior of the Kennedy Center. The decision came after U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper denied a last-minute request from the Kennedy Center's board to maintain the name. Workers have begun constructing scaffolding around the section of the building that features Trump's name. The Kennedy Center's leadership is appealing the ruling, arguing that significant changes to the center should wait for the court's resolution. A memo from the Kennedy Center's Office of General Counsel instructed staff to use the full name of the center without Trump's name in official communications. The Kennedy Center's website has also removed references to Trump.
