DeSantis Continues Battle Against Disney in Florida

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is waging war on Disney, his state’s biggest employer, over the company's silence on the state's controversial "Don't Say Gay" law and its arrangement with the state government. DeSantis has launched a state investigation into Disney’s Reedy Creek Improvement District, which gives the company the ability to almost autonomously expand and operate the Walt Disney World resort with reduced state oversight. Disney has responded by amending its agreements to cement its power, blocking DeSantis' proposed overhauls. DeSantis has threatened to implement additional tolls on roads leading to the resort, but Disney has proved it isn't afraid to outsmart him.
