Judge Invites Disney To Move Theme Park To Texas

A Texas judge has come up with a solution in the Walt Disney Company's ongoing feud with Florida: move Walt Disney World to the Lone Star State.

In a letter to the company, Fort Bend County Judge K.P. George invites Disney to pack up its Orlando theme park and move it to his county, which is located just outside Houston.

"While you, your company, employees, and diverse fans face authoritarian, anti-business and culture war attacks from extremists in Florida, we in Fort Bend are more than ready to welcome the Disney family with thousands of good paying jobs and billions of dollars of investments," George's letter reads.

The letter comes after DeSantis on Friday stripped Disney of its special tax and self-governing status, which critics say was in retaliation for the company's opposition to Florida's "Don't Say Gay" law.
