Contrary to Ron DeSantis’ claims that he's already won his fight with Disney World, there is still very much a legal battle ongoing in both state and federal court between the theme park resort and the Florida government. But if a recently introduced Florida law is successful, it will have the effect of ending at least one of the lawsuits, because the organization being sued by Disney World would cease to exist.
The current fight between Disney and Florida really began in February this year when Ron DeSantis signed a law that transformed the special district that oversees Disney World from the Reedy Creek Improvement District into the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District. In addition to changing the name, the law changed how the district board was chosen, replacing residents of the district with a board handpicked by DeSantis.
