Last week, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed a bill that will end Disney World’s special tax status starting in June 2023. The move was a direct response to Disney’s belated opposition to the recently passed Florida law restricting the ability of teachers to discuss sexual orientation and gender identity in schools. Disney has been criticized by many on the right and the left over its handling of what opponents have dubbed the “Don’t Say Gay Bill.”
