No ‘U-Turn’: DeSantis Shoots Down Report Florida Seeking Compromise With Disney

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is in no rush to reverse the state’s plan to end the special tax and regulatory treatment Disney has enjoyed for decades, with his office shooting down a report of a pending ‘U-Turn.’

A report from the Financial Times cited unnamed sources saying state lawmakers were considering a pivot in the wake of Disney’s ouster of the CEO who tangled with DeSantis earlier this year by  opposing a state law prohibiting instruction about sexual orientation and gender identity for students between kindergarten and third grade.

But a spokesman for the governor said DeSantis is not considering any sort of compromise with the entertainment giant on the Reedy Creek Improvement District status that affords it the special treatment.
