FL GOP retaliates against Disney

Florida strips Walt Disney World of self-governing abilities

The Florida legislature, on Thursday, 21 April 2022, passed a bill which could cause significant problems for Walt Disney World. The bill, signed by Florida Gov. Ron Desantis, dissolves a special district that affords Walt Disney Company self-governing abilities within the outer limits of both Orange and Osceola counties.

Florida’s Republicans appear to have forgotten the Walt Disney Company, for decades, has been a metaphorical engineer stoking Florida’s economy. Some must cover the cost and it will be Floridian taxpayers.

Crist, Florida’s governor between 2007 and 2011, currently serves Florida’s 13th district in the United States House of Representatives.

Reedy Creek Improvement District, in an obvious retaliative move, is being dissolved because of Disney’s unwillingness to support HB 1557. HB 1557 is also known as the “Don’t Say Gay” bill. Kyle Griffin, an executive producer with MSNBC, referenced Florida Republicans in a recent tweet.

Dissolving the special Reedy Creek Improvement District, created in 1967, doesn’t come without a significant price tag. Someone must pick up the tab for both Reedy Creek employees and the infrastructure.
