It's really nonsense political theater from legislators that don't even represent these jurisdictions.

Does dissolution of the District require the consent of the local jurisdictions?
It is theatre in that the ones proposing this must have a clue that the #1 industry in FL is tourism and WDW is a main driver in this effort.
It’s a mutual relationship. Disney World would not be nearly as profitable of it where located in Indiana.
It’s in Disneys best interest to start acting like a business and not a political party.
They're acting exactly like a business is expected to in 2022.
Supreme Court said that businesses are people, people have opinions.
Please educate me then.
I mean, unless you don't agree with the US Supreme Court that "corporations are people", and as such are entitled to free speech.
Or you can boycott Disney, which is fine by me - one less person in line.
Should? No - it will definitely go to court, and will likely be struck down. Not the first legislation from DeSantis to be eliminated that way.
Drive safe. I'll be sure to remind you.

Central Florida wasn’t exactly a tourist destination in 1967
It was not.
It was a swampy backwater that had a small city of little importance outside the region.

Not what I meant. My point is when those actual jurisdictions weigh in and show the ramifications it will have, it simply won't happen. I highly doubt it even gets to that point. These are no name Republicans trying to make a name for themselves in the heat of the moment.

This company is just ridiculous and pathetic anymore.
Ok let’s try to agree on a few things first.
Disney’s responsibility is to make as much money as possible for their shareholders.
Agree?
We may use language such as radical left or fringe right to disparage the party we don’t align with but the reality is this country is mostly split down the middle. We have two almost equal sized groups.
Agree?
These two groups really REALLY don’t like each other. To the point where CNN was running a headline today asking if the midterms will cause a civil war.
Agree?
So now your the CEO of Disney. You have two equal sized groups of customers that don’t like one another. Anything that is done to appease one group will only rile up the other.
Please tell me why it’s a good business decision to step into the middle of that minefield?

This! a family entertainment business I might add. But its execs at the top are acting otherwise. I feel its not so much the local Disney World management as it is the ones out of California. The big C just needs to be shown the door. Hes done more harm than good already.
