As it stands, a majority of the Miss America pageant’s state organizations have called for both Gretchen Carlson and the Miss America organization’s CEO, Regina Hopper, to resign.
Due to dissatisfaction with how the decision to end the swimsuit portion of the competition was reached, along with other aspects of Gretchen Carlson and Regina Hopper’s tenure, 46 out of 51 state pageant organizations have called for them to step down from their posts.
The swimsuit decision has not been without its controversy, including with those working behind the scenes at the organization.
