U.S. District Judge Casey Cooper ruled that the center’s board violated the law by adding Trump’s name. Cooper wrote that the law “makes crystal clear that the Center is to be named for President Kennedy.”
Cooper added, “It cannot bear any other formal name or public memorial based on the Board’s unilateral say-so,” and ordered officials to remove Trump’s name from signage on the Kennedy Center, CNN reported.
