Florida lawmakers will move to increase state control of Walt Disney World's private government, according to a notice published Friday.

to a law that bars instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity in kindergarten through third grade, as well as lessons deemed not age appropriate. Disney also said it would suspend political donations in the state and that it would support organizations working to oppose the education law.

The creation of Reedy Creek district was instrumental in Disney's decision to build near Orlando in the 1960s. Having a separate government allows the company to provide zoning, fire protection, utilities and infrastructure services on its sprawling property.

Deathsantis is worse than trump

Because healthcare isn’t an issue. 🙄

Oh, this is not going to go well in court...and Floridians will be paying for all those legal bills.

When Disney leaves Florida, they’ll regret it

Fascists

Disney World needs to move anyway.

Florida is America’s toilet and they live up to their well-deserved reputation daily..

Serial killer makes an announcement. RonDeSantis

Gov Ron DeSantis can have all the fun he wants with Disney once Mickey is in the public domain next year.He can use Mickey in his campaign for President.

Isn’t The Villages it’s own entity much like Disney? Of course it is a hotbed of MAGAats so is safe from Ronnie’s tantrums.

Maybe Disney should take the 60k jobs and the billions in revenue it generates for FL and look for a state that is more business friendly towards them. DeSantis would be left with a bunch of hillbillies and geriatrics to govern with his authoratarian ways.

Very freedom

That is the way it should be, no private company should have jurisdiction over the state’s land. In a democracy, people are voting to elect their representatives to manage their state’s affairs. No privet company should be exempt from the people's choice!

It's the local government, not the private government. The people who live and work there deserve to govern their own local community as all other localities do in Florida. DeSantis is a tyrant for revoking home rule because he doesn't agree with their politics. He's a despot.

Whether you are for or against this bill you gotta admire RonDeSantisFL for utilizing the law to protect the interests of his state and constituents. Quashed that California influence like a roach in the kitchen. I wish Gavin knew sum bout that 😂

Oh look Won Won Is twying to get attention because he wants to be pwesident.

Doesn’t Florida inherit Disney’s billion dollar bond issue? Sounds like a good deal for Disney

The mans gone extreme 'woke'....like the salem witch trials that falsley accused hundreds of inocent people based on a fake non existent witchcraft accusation.

I don’t know who DeSantis thinks he is going up against the Mouse. Many politicians have come & gone. The Mouse is still there!

So-called 'business-friendly'

I sure hope Disney finds a way to get even with DeathSantis!

A nice distraction from not dealing with the Insurance Corporations' gouging.

I'm from the South, I hate every one

You should curtail Muslim fanantics!

The details of the bill have not come out but CBS wants to 🤥. Just like they do-

Wth

Leave Disney alone

tbell1968 Wtf did Mickey Mouse ever do to DeSantis? He's out for blood. What a pitiful, small man.

Doesn’t Disney have a binding contract?

Republicans don’t mess with private business unless it suits their culture wars.

They should call it “Pedophilia World”

Boycott anything Disney

seems both sides like to control private companies..common ground 🇺🇲🇺🇲

What happened to republicans wanting small government

How are they trying to take over a private company?

I hope the mouse kicks their asses or leaves Florida .

Thereby showing once again that Republicans are nothing but a joke.

Because nobody is paying attention to ME!!!

Oh and research has determined that when it comes to the SAT tests the students from these Charter Schools don't do very well at all, apparently.

Taxpayers will pay taxes for education,right? Now because of Republican policies, a good portion that used to go to Public Schools will go to Private Schools that can teach whatever they want, however they want with no oversize by the Public or the Government.

Florida in my opinion, had better leave Disney alone or they risk loosing their BIGGEST draw!

This is how DeSantis gets combat experience. Fighting cartoon characters.

Hes running for president. Yuck.

Sour baby grapes from KOOKUPLICANS!

Well that's quite Nazi-ish of them...

There goes the neighborhood

Play with fire. You get burnt. FAFO.

Investors take note.

Can't believe Disney has their own 'government' to begin with. Disney overstepped their power by supporting pedophilia, trans and kids, and supporting gender 'confirmation' care for kids by chemical castration and hormones. It's child abuse. Maybe that's what Disney is for

Definitely shouldn't be allowed in Washington. trump 2.0

DeCastro going full Cuba.

So much for 'free market'. Slippery slope, Ron.

The PARTY OF CONTROL AND DICTATORSHIP. Use to be for the people! Iran just hung 2 men for protesting and numbers of others sentence to death. This is the direction today's GOP and MAGAs are going

Hope RobertIger deals with this clown.

Maybe Disney world need to move to NY

Why? What did Mickey do anything to you

robriglo Tax payers will pay in Florida Haha

Keep their woke ideology out of our Florida politics. We are where WOKE GOES BROKE. Our kids will be educated not indoctrinated. We feel all have a right to their choices and be given respect but it doesn't mean we have to agree. I can show love and compassion without agreeing.

It sounds like communism, it smells like socialism, it walks like populism, and it looks like fascism. What is it?

Good. Why should any company have their own taxing powers. Imagine if ExxonMobil had there government and tax structure where they operated.

Coyote Ron wants a communist state.

But wait, werent republicans about small government? Could this mean they just...say things...for votes?!

DeSantis is DeHitler.

Good! This will send a message across the country. Kindergarten- 2nd grade are sacrad innocent children. Libs can move to CA if they want to transition their kid or take them to drag shows.

A family of five pockets over 600 to just get in not including food and hotels. They should pay their fair share in taxes

bigger government take over raise taxes on FL citizens desantis.

What if Disney just say fuq it & close the doors?🤔

Freedom?

The sovereignty of the disneyverse must be respected.

Now it moves to “Don’t Say Donald Duck”

“Florida moves to curtail Disney World's powers as 'Don't Say Gay' feud advances” - less inflammatory headline on actual website. Your emotions are being manipulated by cbsnews in an effort to mislead.

This is what Florida voted for in November. Now, the citizens will literally be paying the price in higher taxes!

small government🤔

Good. My daughter interned there and lived in their housing THEY NAILED THE WINDOWS SHUT! No oversight by outside fire codes!

Disney should have stayed out of our state politics, now they are learning that unnecessary actions have consequences.

Florida to evictDisney because Disney is woke on dontsaygay

Should show a little more respect to the entity that built Central Florida.

The party of 'small government'....

Now Disney will start paying it’s fair share of taxes. Socialist Democrats should be thrilled.

That’s the exact opposite of what Republicans say they are for. Less government control? Nah. Just watch what Deathsatan is doing.

He’s disgusting

So much for free enterprise & speech under baby DeSantis

it's a Small, Small, Small, Small World ...but WD is more powerful and vicious than you think

DeSantis is great at losing lawsuits. Some are saying the best ever.

RonDeSantisFL 'free state' my ass.

What happened to small government? Hes vastly overreaching in so many areas like this, education, healthcare, etc. Repulsive

The don’t say gay is a lie. The Fake news media made that up

Great job! Keep the perverted views away from the children

Why? To stoke your ego? Leave well enough alone

Disney world in Dothan, Alabama?

And here I thought GOPHERS were all for less government intrusion into private business? Or is that only when it’s DEMS intrusion into private business? But then again Gov DeSantis gets to do & say whatever he wants because he’s a BIG GOPHER in a very REP state.

Is there anything that this man does that isn't foul... Should've left Disney alone and stop trying to make Florida a totalitarian state & salute you DeathSantis

Lo único que Desantis busca es el favor de los votos de las Iglesias y conservadores a el le importa un bledo lo que Disney diga o haga… solo son politiquerías ..

Some would call this communism.

Take that Disney crap down , close that shit put them in jail for child abuse, and test they believe they are an independent state like the Vatican in rome? Fck it, this is florida, pervs and pedos out, Disney woke? So go broke MF’s corrupt pervs.

Big Socialist Ron

I'm not here to defend a huge company like dirty old Disney, but Desantis is garbage too. Just keep all that in America's trashcan Florida where it belongs.

Good. !!!

The governor protests too much. Wonder what he fears from Mickey and his friends 🤔

Soon they will require it be a church.

Their tax bill is going to be huge. This should make all my fellow democrats very happy!

Disney has all the money in the world. Desantis isn’t going to win this pissing contest.

Smaller government until they want controll never vote republican.

This is freedom of speech for the modern day GOP who see no irony in using the power of the state to suppress viewpoints they don't like.

How about taking control of the White House and save America

Disney, leave that hellhole!

Desantis will lose this fight. Badly.

Unfortunately, Disney Schenectady won’t be a big draw; all of the states with good weather year round on the east coast are red, so Disney is stuck.

Do something authoritarian, lose in court, rinse, repeat. The DeSantis way.

So... communism 😂

Hey Disney, play stupid games win stupid prizes.

about time yes they make fussy cartoons but, they can't be their own state within a state just for the sake of tax fudging

Great Florida when you voted for Santis you voted for higher taxes someone has too pick those up ... guess who

Why is it call Don’t say gay? Where is that written?

Wait…I thought these alt-right clowns were the party of small government.

You know who supports state control of private enterprise? Communists.

freedumb! DeSantisDestroysFlorida
