Walt Disney Company Chairman and CEO Bob Iger is resigning from his position on a White House advisory council in response to President Donald Trump's withdrawal from the Paris climate agreement.
Iger tweeted his decision on Thursday, just a few hours after Elon Musk exited the council. Iger says it was a matter of principle.
As a Democrat who supported Hillary Clinton in the presidential election, Iger faced criticism for his participation in Trump's advisory council, but he assured Disney shareholders that participation did not equal endorsement.
Iger isn't the only business leader weighing in on the president's decision. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg says in a post that Trump's decision is "bad for the environment, bad for the economy, and it puts our children's future at risk."
