Gov. Newsom asks Disney to relocate jobs back to California over Florida LGBTQ bill

In just a few short words, Gov. Gavin Newsom asked the Walt Disney Co. to reconsider its plans to relocate 2,000 jobs from Southern California to a new campus in Florida.

Newsom said in a tweet, “Disney, the door is open to bring those jobs back to California — the state that actually represents the values of your workers.”

The tweet is in response to the fallout from Florida moving closer to cementing its “Parental Rights in Education” bill, often referred to by the LGBTQ community as the “Don’t Say Gay” bill, which would limit instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity in schools.
