“Today the corporate kingdom finally comes to an end,” DeSantis said at the bill signing ceremony.

, which bars teachers within the state from discussing gender identity or sexual orientation with students below fourth grade.Disney World will no longer control the special tax district.The bill left the district’s debt obligations and other financial structures intact. DeSantis vowed at a press conference earlier this month that the changes would not result in any additional tax burden for Floridians.

The pledge came after some critics had suggested the overhaul would shift Disney’s debt obligations to tax payers.“Disney’s going to pay its fair share of taxes and Disney’s going to honor the debt and that’s exactly what this proposed piece of legislation will do,” DeSantis said. The changes to its special tax district mark another setback for Disney, which is in the midst of a turnaround effort under CEO Bob Iger. The company recently announced a major cost-cutting plan that included 7,000 layoffs.Disney is also facing pushback from its corporate staffers over Iger’s mandate that they return to the office at least four days per week.

Good. 👍

Reedy Creek was established by Walt Disney so Disney World wouldn’t be a burden on the people of Florida and the residence wouldn’t have to pay any state tax now that’s gone so state tax is coming to but people aren’t too bright and can’t see that fact

Let’s see how much is the best governor ever when you now have state tax that will be unlike anything that state has ever seen before I can’t believe how brainwashed the people in Florida are that don’t realize this is going to be a burden on the people of Florida

That is some expensive crap

DeSantis the Best Governor Florida ever had. 🌴🌴🌴🌴

Disney should leave Florida, see how popular Desantis will be. Now, taxes will go up for central Floridian, and the roads will be more like the Miami area😩. Now I have to find a new candidate for president 😞. ? 2024

This is nonsense!!! The people of Florida are better than this and I hope and pray that they don’t give this monster any more power than he has already. Ron DeSantis is an authoritarian white supremacist and a 'christian nationalist' (anti-women's reproductive rights, anti-gay rights, anti-trans rights). He is an ignorant, violent hater of Trans Kids, Women, Black People, Jewish People, Gay People, Immigrants.
