'As was recently reported, the Producers Guild's National Board of Directors voted unanimously to initiate proceedings to terminate the membership of Harvey Weinstein,' read a statement from the guild issued Monday.

'The Guild has received notice that rather than addressing the Guild's charges, Mr. Weinstein elected to resign his membership in the Producers Guild.

'In light of Mr. Weinstein's widely reported behavior — with new reports continuing to surface even now — the Producers Guild's National Board has voted unanimously to enact a lifetime ban on Mr. Weinstein, permanently barring him from PGA membership.

'This unprecedented step is a reflection of the seriousness with which the Guild regards the numerous reports of Mr. Weinstein's decades of reprehensible conduct.

'Sexual harassment can no longer be tolerated in our industry or within the ranks of Producers Guild membership.'
