The Kennedy Center Arts Workers United is comprised of several arts unions, including Actors’ Equity Association, the American Federation of Musicians, the American Guild of Musical Artists, the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees, and the Stage Directors and Choreographers Society, representing performers and behind-the-scenes staff members across the various organizations.

"A pause in Kennedy Center operations without due regard for those who work there would be harmful for the arts and creative workers in America," the statement continued, revealing that, should the president move forward with his plans and "displace [the] members" of said unions, they will "enforce our contracts and exercise all our rights under the law."

Maria Shriver, John F. Kennedy's niece, clapped back against Trump's claim, suspecting that the president actually chose to close down the facility after numerous performers pulled out of their scheduled events due to his taking control of the board and programming—not to mention the backlash over rebranding the memorial building with his own name.
Trump's plans are "totally subject to Board approval," but, seeing as he hand-selected the board, it's unlikely he'll face objections on that front. He plans to close the historic venue, which he called "tired, broken, and dilapidated," this coming Independence Day.
