Court blocks Trump from naming Kennedy Center and halts renovations

TL;DR Summary
A federal judge blocked Donald Trump from adding his name to the Kennedy Center and paused two-year renovations, ruling the center’s organic statute fixes its name to John F. Kennedy and only Congress can change it; the decision also restored ex officio trustees’ voting rights and found the board cannot discriminate against them, in response to Rep. Joyce Beatty’s lawsuit.
