A Florida senator said that Disney should avoid getting involved in the state’s politics, namely on social issues, after the company criticized a parental rights bill backed by Republicans and Gov. Ron DeSantis.

“Our kindergartners shouldn’t be taught about sex in school. So why Disney wants to go engage in some social issue, it doesn’t make any sense to me,” Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) told Fox Business over the past weekend. “In a company that is relying on a special tax status, that doesn’t make any sense.”
