The plan is to inscribe Trump’s name to commemorate his role in refurbishing the center, according to a person familiar with the decision.
The decision drew sharp condemnation from Democratic Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, who said the board is "again openly flouting a court order" by voting to put President Trump’s name on the building.
