American entertainment giant The Walt Disney Company ha defendant this Wednesday to the governor of Florida, Ron DeSantisand to the company’s new board after they decided to unilaterally annul a previous agreement signed in February between their predecessors and the company.
Disney approved in February with the outgoing board that managed the company’s facilities in Orlando County, in the United States, limit the powers of the new imposed by DeSantiswho has reversed the agreement during a meeting this Wednesday.
The special counsel of the new board, daniel langleyhas declared the February agreement void, after which Disney has decided to sue DeSantis, further entrenching the open battle for months between Florida and the entertainment company.
“Disney is in this deplorable position because he expressed a point of view, which neither the governor nor his allies liked it“says the lawsuit, referring to the company’s criticism of the law that prohibits talking about sexual diversity in elementary schools in Florida.
In this sense, he has specified that, in addition to restricting freedom of expression in the state, the actions of Governor DeSantis “threaten business operations of the company, boycott their economic future in the region and violate your constitutional rights“, NBC News has collected.
The company, which until February enjoyed a special tax regime since the 1960s and which assumed a kind of self-government over the Reedy Creek Improvement District, on the Orange and Osceola limits, has alleged that it is filing the lawsuit to “protect ” to your staff and partners a “relentless campaign” by the government against freedom of expression.
DeSantis’s decision to ask Congress to end the Reedy Creek Improvement District is viewed by both Democrats and Republicans as a kind of revenge against the company for its criticism of the law that prohibits discussion of sexual diversity in elementary schools in the state of Florida.
