Disney Loses Florida Dems’ Fundraiser Over ‘Don’t Say Gay’ Bill Controversy

The Florida Democratic Party has pulled an annual fundraising event scheduled to be held at Walt Disney World following the controversy over Disney‘s response to the state’s controversial “Don’t Say Gay” bill.

Hours after the party’s LGBTQ+ caucus said it would skip the event in protest, the party chair issued a statement declaring their intent to reschedule and move the event, according to the Tampa Bay Times.

The legislation has led to protests and walkouts among Disney employees who have voiced their frustration over the company’s slow response in condemning the bill.

This is a developing story that will be updated as more information becomes available.
