TL;DR Summary

The Florida Chamber of Commerce, which has deep ties to both Disney and Republican Governor Ron DeSantis, has not taken sides in their ongoing feud. The chamber has historically supported both entities and has not publicly commented on the dispute. The feud began when Disney spoke out against a Florida bill limiting classroom discussion of sexual orientation or gender identity, and DeSantis targeted the special tax district that has allowed Disney to self-govern its Florida operations since the 1960s. The state's legislative session is wrapping up, and Republicans have backed multiple pieces of legislation targeting Disney.
