A right-wing Christian group has ended its boycott against McDonald’s, claiming a victory after an executive of the hamburger chain resigned from the board of the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce.
But McDonald’s says that vice president of communications Richard Ellis’ decision to step down from the business group was personal and based on his relocation to Canada, where he’s accepted a new position with McDonald’s Restaurants of Canada Ltd.
“Diversity and inclusion are integral components of our brand and our heritage,” McDonald’s said in a statement.
