“#Bob Iger quits California economic task force as Disney lays off 28,000 workers<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n Disney chairman Bob Iger quit California Gov. Gavin News<\/a>om\u2019s coronavirus recovery task force just two days after the Mouse House said it was cutting 28,000 jobs at its US parks business.<\/p>\n

A Disney rep wouldn\u2019t say why or exactly when Iger resigned from the task force, which was formed in April, according to the Sacramento Bee, which first reported the news late Thursday.<\/p>\n

Disney didn\u2019t immedia<\/a>tely respond to a request for comment from The Post.<\/p>\n

The news comes as Newsom is preparing to release guidance on theme<\/a> parks reopening on Friday, despite mixed reactions from the industry.<\/p>\n

Just a week ago, Josh D\u2019Amaro, the new chairman of Disney Parks begged California officials to let Disneyland in Anaheim reopen and to \u201ctreat theme parks the way you treat other sectors.\u201d<\/p>\n

The coronavirus has been particularly damaging to Disney, which relies on its robust theme parks business. Although Disney has reopened some of its parks across the globe, it has been unable to open Disneyland, which has been closed since March 12, due to state restrictions.<\/p>\n

Although Florida\u2019s Disney World reopened on July 11, limits on attendance and other pandemic-related restrictions have squeezed the business. As a result, Disney made its stunning layoffs announcement at its parks division in California and Florida on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, the California Attractions and Parks Association urged Newsom to hold off on finalizing the reopening guidelines, saying that some of the healthy and safety guidelines \u201cneed to be modified if they are to lead to a responsible and reasonable amusement park reopening plan,.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe ask the Governor not to finalize guidance for amusement parks before engaging the industry in a more earnest manner, listening to park operators\u2019 expertise, and collaborating with the industry on a plan that will allow for amusement parks to reopen responsibly while still keeping the health and safety of park employees and guests a top priority,\u201d the trade group wrote.<\/p>\n

Iger was one of the original members of Newsom\u2019s group, which aimed to provide the Golden State with a \u201csafe reset for a roadmap to recovery.\u201d It includes other prominent leaders, such as Apple chief executive Tim Cook, former Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen, and former Calif. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
