The bill requires DeSantis, a Republican, to appoint a five-member board to oversee the government services that the Disney district provides in its sprawling theme park properties in Florida.
which bars instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity in kindergarten through third grade and lessons deemed not age-appropriate. In February, DeSantis called on lawmakers to again return to deal with Disney and finalize state control over the district in another hastily called special session that signaled the governor’s willingness to wield the power of state government to accomplish political goals, a strategy that is expected to continue in the coming months ahead of his potential White House run.
It leaves the district and its financial abilities and debt obligations intact, addressing a chief concern of surrounding governments. It also prevents people who have worked with or contracted with a theme park in the past three years from serving on the district’s new governing board.
Going to disney gonna be like going to the dmv soon
And that should be a problem for you
Good
“Gives him control” I think you mean local governments including the state, you know like every other business in Florida.
DeSantis is merely practicing for the day he becomes president. Today, Disney. Tomorrow, Florida. Later, Democrats will be threatened. DeSantisMustBeStopped.
I see you have your talking points, all the left outlets say it gives him control instead of the giving the state control.
This is misleading. It gives FLORIDA control over Disney. With media reporting like this no wonder there’s so much division and animosity in this country. We need a media revolution BAD
The rich woke democrats should pay their fair share! No more escaping paying their taxes!
If it's about control, it's not about freedom.
I am from the government and I am here to help you.
I am from the government and I am here to help you?
Yeahhhh
Since when has government done better than the private sector? The answer is never. That whole area will look like Detroit in a few years. Socialists pretending to be republicans are causing this.
The media can sure twist and spin.
Small government at work for you. irony statetaxesarecoming
Disney Corp did this to themselves by becoming less family friendly and more of a political action group . Should not be pushing their views on people who just want to come to their parks for fun, not indoctrination .
Great, Governor! Disney today,education yesterday,what and who will you move to control tomorrow? Who died & left you the authority to think,speak & act for everyone else? Are you that far gone in your narcissism? This is not Democracy,this is Autocracy! UnAmerican and shameful!
It’s all for theater.
Trump 2.0, works in extreme right wing Florida and the extreme right wing GOP Primaries, does not have a chance in general election once people get to know the Truth About Criminal DeSantis.
That is awesome!! Go Gov. DeSantis!!!
Nothing says no to government control like the anti-big government 🤣
BEST GOVERNOR EVER!!!
I hope they pack up and leave the state after this move…let’s see how he would deal with that. All this stems from Disney standing up to this so call homophobic clown and he couldn’t take it.
It figured he would get Control and I bet the Comptrollers will be Republicans and not a Democratic body of both parties, with fair practice & hearings, but mostly likely run by DeSantis.
Why is it giving him control instead of the state of Florida? The state is the people that vote. Word it correctly
If it hasn’t changed, it’s not just a bill that affects Disney
Well let’s say goodbye to Disney World!
Of course he did 🙄
And they say Republicans aren't just as authoritarian and big govt as Democrats hahahaha.
Yay for imposing the will of big government on private businesses!!! The GOp and GovRonDeSantis just want to indoctrinate you how they want to. Don’t be fooled by their lies.
Let’s see how long this shit sandwich takes to start smelling.
Best Governor ever. Actually Governing. What a Concept.
Good
That’s a load of spin. It does NOT give DeSantis control. It gives certain controls to the state of Florida control, just like every other theme park in Florida.
He is punishing those that live in Orange County because now they will paying back Disney’s debt. Great job you homophobic.
Ron DeFacist, what a douche
Cue the fucking taxes he’s going to implement 🙄
Careful desantis messing with your states biggest money maker
Is this what 'small government' looks like?
Awesome!
Fascist
