Rep. Joyce Beatty Challenges Kennedy Center's Renaming in Lawsuit

Rep. Joyce Beatty has taken legal action against the Kennedy Center's board of trustees, arguing that only Congress has the authority to add the sitting president's name to the institution. The Democratic congresswoman filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia to challenge the board's decision to rename the institution the Trump Kennedy Center. Beatty claims that the board's vote exceeded its statutory authority and is seeking a court ruling to void the renaming.
