Disney and DeSantis Clash Over Free Speech Case

TL;DR Summary
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is in a feud with Disney over the company's opposition to his "Don't Say Gay" bill, which barred classroom instruction on gender and sexuality before the fourth grade. DeSantis has attempted to punish Disney by revoking its control of the Reedy Creek Improvement District, but Disney has fought back with a lawsuit alleging that DeSantis violated its First Amendment rights. The feud has drawn criticism from DeSantis' political opponents and even former President Donald Trump. Disney has canceled plans for a new corporate campus in Orlando, citing "changing business conditions" in the state.
