Donald Trump says he will “transfer” control of the Kennedy Center to the U.S. Congress after a court ruling that set back his administration’s position, according to reporting from multiple outlets. In the statement cited by Business Standard, Trump criticizes the judge’s decision and characterizes the Kennedy Center as a “failing Institution.” He says he will work with Congress to move the facility’s governance back to Congress so lawmakers can decide what to do with it.
Channel NewsAsia similarly reports that Trump intends to transfer the Kennedy Center to Congress following the U.S. court setback. The articles describe the move as a response to the court ruling rather than an immediate reversal of control on its own. Both accounts frame the plan as a cooperation effort with Congress to determine the institution’s future direction and oversight. Neither source, in the provided excerpts, details the underlying legal dispute, the specific terms of the judge’s order, or the precise timing or mechanism for the transfer.
