Eight people have left President Trump's manufacturing council in recent days amid the extraordinary uproar sparked by the violence in Charlottesville.

Others have opted to stay, even under pressure from grassroots groups. Some argue it's more valuable to have a seat at the table when the government is shaping policy that affects their companies.

The names of the members below come from official White House lists published at the time each group was announced. CNNMoney has reached out to all the members of the manufacturing panel, and a second presidential council on the economy, to ask where they stand.

This list will be updated as developments require or new information comes in.
