Melania Trump, Kennedy Center and Opera House
Digest more
House Republicans have advanced a proposal to rename the Kennedy Center's Opera House, one of the center's major theaters, the “First Lady Melania Trump Opera House.”
The amendment comes as the latest move in Republicans' effort to reshape the Kennedy Center, which was authorized by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1958, named after President John F. Kennedy in 1964 following his assassination, and opened in 1971 under the Richard Nixon administration.
