Disney firefighters are distraught, choked up by 'disturbing' move from Ron DeSantis to strip them of free park passes

Firefighters confronted DeSantis' governing board on Wednesday. “The removal of this benefit takes away, for some, their entire reason for working here."

This is a standard perk for Disney employees. Reddy Creek providing it to the fire firefighters was basically an acknowledgement that the fire fighters were Disney employees. Disney was explicitly in charge of Reddy Creek so that made some sense. Desantis ripped Reddy Creek away from Disney to win political points, and is now hurting the firefighters, apparently just for fun, in his continued vendetta.
I'm sure Disney could just keep giving them those passes for free if they felt like it
This. Surprised this is so far down. I'd expect it also, this fool is giving Disney a chance to be the good guys again at no actual cost to them. It's handing Disney a no-brainer PR win.
Good PR is worth more when there is bad news first. If Disney does this sight unseen it's worth less than giving out passes next week after this story gets around.
Totally, and I'm all for the mouse on this one if I didn't make that clear.
That would be a massive win for DeSantis, since it shows that Disney does buckle when push comes to shove.
