The local governing board that oversees much of Walt Disney World voted Monday to sue the company as part of an ongoing political feud fueled by Gov. Ron DeSantis.
The company sued after the board voted to invalidate an agreement the previous board passed allowing it to keep control of much of its operations just as DeSantis and his Republican allies were preparing to pass legislation allowing him to appoint a new board.“When I explain the idea that this board is trying to bring new and better ideas to the district, it makes all the sense to all my friends on the right and left,” board chairman Martin Garcia said.
Disney sued DeSantis in a Tallahassee-based federal court after the DeSantis-appointed board voted to nullify a development agreement the previous board had agreed to. It was passed with the aim of keeping company operations in the hands of Disney rather than the DeSantis-appointed board, out of fear the new board would be hostile toward its interests.
Board member Ron Peri said he does not like that the board has been portrayed as a political weapon used by DeSantis, or how individual board members have been covered publicly. He specifically referred to a story with an old quote from him that implied he thought drinking tap water could make people gay.
