“DeSantis plans to veto a $35 million legislation for a Pasco County facility earmarked for the Tampa Bay Rays’ spring training,” Outkick reported. “DeSantis’s decision is in response to the Rays politicizing recent shootings in Buffalo and Uvalde ahead of a matchup with the Yankees in May.”
The choice comes after the Rays published an announcement last week declaring that the tragedies “have shaken us to the core.”

Disney’s ability to govern the area was formed when the Reedy Creek Improvement Act was signed in May 1967.
