The Kennedy Center is a living memorial to President John F. Kennedy, created by an act of Congress. Renaming it or any of its facilities for President Trump would directly violate the law that established the Center. This law expressly prohibits installing any new memorials or plaques in the public areas after 1983, aside from the Eisenhower Theater. Attempting to circumvent this legal restriction would undermine the integrity of the Kennedy Center's founding purpose and open the door to future political controversies over its name and programming. As representatives entrusted with upholding the law, you must reject any proposals to rename the Kennedy Center or its opera house after the current president and first lady. Such actions would set a troubling precedent of ignoring established legislation for partisan interests. Instead, we should honor the Kennedy Center's nonpartisan mission to celebrate the arts and serve as a unifying cultural institution for all Americans. I urge you to safeguard this vital legacy by voting against any legislation that would improperly rename these facilities in violation of the law.
