public-private partnership

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and Disney World are set to announce a groundbreaking $17 billion investment deal. The announcement, expected on Wednesday, will highlight significant new additions to the theme park, alongside Disney’s commitment to developing employee housing. In return, Florida promises to maintain the necessary infrastructure to support the park’s expansion.

The deal marks a notable turn in the ongoing feud between Disney and Governor DeSantis. The conflict began in 2022 when the Florida legislature passed a controversial law banning lessons on sexual orientation and gender. . .
