Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and his Republican colleagues are ramping up their pressure on Disney by threatening to revoke the special district status of Disney’s Reedy Creek Improvement District, which is the company's local government for the land that they own. Five other districts are also on the chopping block as DeSantis looks to put Disney in their place for publicly opposing his “Don’t Say Gay” law. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian discuss on The Young Turks. Watch LIVE weekdays 6-8 pm ET. http://youtube.com/theyoungturks/live

“Residents of two Florida counties could end up footing the bill if the state abolishes a special district that has allowed the Walt Disney Company to operate its own local government.
State Senate Minority Leader Gary Farmer, a Democrat, warned on Tuesday that residents of Orange and Osceola counties may have to assume Disney's liabilities of anywhere between $1 billion and $2 billion if the Reedy Creek Improvement District is dissolved.
Efforts to dissolve Disney's special district, along with five others, come amid Republican criticism of the company for its public opposition to a controversial new education law that critics have dubbed the "Don't Say Gay" law.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who is seen as a future presidential contender, called on lawmakers to revoke the special status of the Reedy Creek Improvement District amid the ongoing dispute between Disney and his administration over the Parental Rights in Education law."
