The political feud between Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and the Walt Disney Co. (NYSE:DIS) took a sharp right turn with the governor calling a special session of the state legislature to revoke a special status that enabled the company to operate as an independent government in the area around its Orlando theme parks.
What Happened: During a press conference on Tuesday, DeSantis announced the legislature was meeting for its decennial reconfiguration of the state’s congressional district map based on the results of the recent U.S. Census data updates.
