The State Department had renamed the institution in Washington after Trump in december 2025, initially adding his name in removable silver lettering. Currently, the administration plans to permanently engrave Trump\u2019s name into the building\u2019s facade. The ousted board members allege in their emergency petition to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the district of columbia Circuit that a contractor has already been chosen to carve Trump\u2019s name into the headquarters on Constitution Avenue.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<article class=\"fn-body\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The U.S. Institute of Peace\u2019s former board members filed an emergency motion Thursday to block President <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\">Donald Trump\u2019s<\/a> name from being engraved into the building.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The State Department <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3906769\/state-department-renaming-usip-donald-j-trump-institute-of-peace\/\">renamed<\/a> the institution in Washington after Trump in December 2025.
