Fight over state’s authority escalates
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis now is suggesting tolls on roads leading to Disney’s amusement park in his state, and taxes on hotels there.
The Daily Mail reports the suggestions are the latest comments in what has developed into a long-running battle between DeSantis and the entertainment company since it blasted the governor for his political agenda to protect children in schools from inappropriate sex ideologies and content.
“Come hell or high water, weâre going to make sure that policy of Florida carries the day. And so, they can keep trying to do things. But ultimately, weâre going to win on every single issue involving Disney, I can tell you that,” DeSantis said during a speech this week.
“They are not superior to the people of Florida,” he warned.
