Florida lawmakers vote to end Disney’s tax privilege, self-governing status

Florida’s Republican-led Senate approved a bill on Wednesday that would eliminate The Walt Disney Company’s special tax district that has allowed the company to self-govern its land.

The Florida House is also expected to vote in favor of the legislation after Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis announced on Tuesday that lawmakers will be “considering termination of all special districts that were announced in Florida prior to 1968 — and that includes the Reedy Creek Improvement District.”
