Representative Joyce Beatty told a federal judge in an emergency hearing request that President Trump's closure of the Kennedy Center is 'unlawful,' as a legal dispute over the venue's leadership and branding continues. Trump has said renovations at the performing arts center will not proceed until courts allow his name to be restored to the building. The dispute reflects an ongoing power struggle over control of the historically bipartisan cultural institution, which Trump moved to reshape earlier in his term. The case remains before the courts, with no resolution reached in the emergency hearing.
