Disney Sues Governor DeSantis in Ongoing Feud Over "Don't Say Gay" Law
- Disney filed a lawsuit accusing Governor DeSantis of improperly retaliating against the company for its opposition to Florida's Parental Rights in Education Act.
- DeSantis gained control of Disney's self-governing Reedy Creek district and threatened new theme park inspections and development restrictions.
- The feud between Disney and DeSantis began when Disney spoke out against legislation banning classroom instruction on gender identity and sexual orientation.
- DeSantis's actions against Disney have divided Republicans, with some criticizing his "weaponization" of government power and others backing his push to curb corporations' "wokeness."
- Disney's lawsuit argues that DeSantis's retaliation campaign threatens their business operations, violates their constitutional rights, and will hurt Florida's economy.
