Why Disney's Special District Is Harder To Dissolve Than It Seems
Newsy
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill to dissolve a Disney special district, but now many wonder what this means for future debts and taxes.
In the latest political battle brewing in Florida, Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill revoking the Walt Disney Company's special district status, and he didn't waste time — it was signed just days after the legislation was introduced in late April.
The bill is widely seen as retaliation for the company taking an official stance against the governor's so-called "Don't Say Gay Bill."
"But then for Disney to come out and put a statement and say the bill should have never passed and that they are going to actively work to repeal it, I think, one: was fundamentally dishonest, but two: I think that crossed a line," DeSantis said.
