President Donald Trump has scrapped plans to commission a council of corporate executives focused on improving U.S. infrastructure, a White House official confirmed Thursday, a move that could dent the administration’s efforts to improve broadband access nationwide.

The decision comes after the collapse of two other White House advisory boards — one on the economy, another on manufacturing — as business leaders continue to rebel over Trump’s controversial comments about the violence in Charlottesville, Va., last week.
