Florida Republican lawmakers walked out of an Orange County Legislative Delegation meeting on Nov. 29 that would have considered a bill to repeal Gov. Ron DeSantis’s “take over” of Disney World’s special district.

The three GOP legislators exited the meeting before discussions on Disney’s Reedy Creek Improvement District, citing disagreements over which members can run for chair or vice chair for Orange County’s delegation.
