The Kennedy Center board has voted to close the landmark venue for renovations. This decision follows a federal judge's ruling blocking the return of Donald Trump's name to the venue's facade.
According to reports, Trump stated that $257 million allocated by Congress for the repairs would only be released if the renaming proceeded. However, federal courts have twice ruled that this condition cannot be met without congressional approval.
