The Kennedy Center plans to appeal a judge's order requiring the removal of President Trump's name from the performing arts center, according to multiple reports. The board of trustees, appointed by Trump, voted to pursue the appeal ahead of U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper's deadline to remove the signage from the building in Washington, D.C. Cooper's ruling sided with a lawsuit brought by Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-Ohio), an ex officio member of the Kennedy Center Board of Trustees, stating that the board had overstepped its statutory bounds by unilaterally renaming the Kennedy Center after President Trump. The center had indicated it would comply with the ruling, removing Trump's name from its website and social media accounts. Spokesperson Roma Daravi stated that they are complying with the court's order while evaluating legal options to preserve the recognition of President Trump's leadership.
