The Kennedy Center's board of trustees voted Thursday to inscribe President Donald Trump's name on its building facade, setting up a renewed legal battle over changes to the Washington, D.C., performing arts facility.
Rep. Joyce Beatty, D-Ohio, called the new vote "a transparent effort to circumvent" a judge's order in May that Trump's name be removed from the Kennedy Center.
Beatty and her lawyers detailed the vote on that and other items in a press release.
"I will continue to fight for this treasured national monument," said Beatty, whose lawsuit in D.C. federal court led to the order stripping Trump's name from the center. Trump's name was removed in June.
