The disagreement between both parties was sparked by DeSantis’ takeover of the Reedy Creek Improvement district from the Disney corporation following the company’s opposition to Florida’s so-called “Don’t Say Gay” law. This law, passed in 2022, bans classroom lessons on sexual orientation and gender identity in early grades and has been spoken about frequently by both parties. DeSantis, who championed the law, used Disney as a punching bag in speeches until he suspended campaign for the presidential election earlier this year.
