Power Struggle: Disney and DeSantis' Board Clash Over Authority.

TL;DR Summary
A dispute between Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and Disney over control of the company's Florida theme park district centers around a clause referencing King Charles III and his descendants. The clause is used to avoid rules against contracts that last in perpetuity. The row began after DeSantis passed a "don't say gay" law banning classroom teaching on sexual orientation and gender identity. Disney initially hesitated to state public opposition to the bill, but did so after pressure. A new governing board appointed by DeSantis said it will need to overturn last-minute agreements that would prevent it from taking control.
