Florida Board Supported by DeSantis Halts Disney's DEI Programs, Calling Them "Illegal and Contrary to American Values"

The Central Florida Tourism Oversight District Ends Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Programs

The Central Florida Tourism Oversight District (CFTOD), under the leadership of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, has decided to end all diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs. The board, handpicked by DeSantis, claims that these programs, previously adopted by the Reedy Creek Improvement District, were discriminatory and costly to taxpayers. District Administrator Glenton Gilzean made the announcement, stating that the programs were biased against Americans based on their gender and race.

The district's Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) committee will be dissolved and all related job duties will be eliminated. Staff will no longer be allowed to use work time for DEI initiatives. The decision was made because the previous DEI initiatives were deemed illegal and un-American by the district's representative, Gilzean.

The district mentioned in the statement will no longer support any efforts to divide people based on race or promote the idea that everyone is not equal. The speaker, who was previously the head of a civil rights organization, believes that the community can only succeed when people work together despite their differences.
