Summary
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said in his forthcoming book that he advised former Disney CEO Bob Chapek to stay out of political battle over state legislation that critics dubbed "Don't Say Gay" bill. DeSantis argued that Disney caved to leftist media and activist pressure, and signed the bill into law in March 2022. Disney quickly vowed to help get it repealed, and DeSantis signed a bill giving the state new power over the area that has long granted Disney special self-governance abilities.
