"The embattled chairman of the Chemical Safety Board resigned late Thursday after President Obama asked him to step down, a White House official said.
Obama sought Rafael Moure-Eraso’s resignation after intense pressure from both Republicans and Democrats in Congress following numerous allegations that he broke the law and was an ineffective, dysfunctional and hostile leader.
“It has been a privilege to serve the agency since June 2010,” Moure-Eraso said in an email to employees."
