Jeb Bush stepping down from timber company board
By By Michael J. Mishak December 29, 2014
MIAMI (AP) — Taking another step toward a presidential run, Jeb Bush is resigning from the board of timber company Rayonier Inc.
The Jacksonville, Fla.-based firm said in a regulatory filing Monday that the former Florida governor would step down at the end of the year. Bush has been a director of Rayonier since 2008. The company, set up as a real estate investment trust, owns, leases or manages about 2.6 million acres of forests in the U.S. and New Zealand, according to its website.
Bush's move comes as he explores a presidential run and unwinds some of his business commitments. The potential Republican contender had already confirmed plans to step down from the board of Tenet Healthcare Corp. and leave his advisory role with British banking giant Barclays by Dec. 31.
Aides say Bush is reviewing all of his business and civic engagements as he considers a White House bid.
