Outmaneuvered by Disney in his attempt to punish the company for criticizing him, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Monday announced a new push to attack the entertainment company by putting its rides under state oversight even though the companys ride inspection regime is already far more rigorous than state law requires.

This monorail is exempt! They exempted the monorail from any safety standards or inspections, DeSantis said at a news conference, without pointing out that all theme parks with 1,000 employees or more are exempt from state inspections, not just Disney.

DeSantis, who is expected to announce his bid for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination after the end of the legislative session on May 5, said that lawmakers will in their remaining weeks pass bills that impose state inspections on Disney while also undoing Disneys last-minute deed restrictions and long-term development plan that effectively neutered DeSantis attempt to take control of its taxing district .

Thats not going to work. Thats not going to fly, he said. There is a bill that will be put out in the Florida legislature that will make sure that the agreements purported to be entered into by Disney will be revoked.
