Biden applauds efforts to alleviate supply chain delays

Published

on

US President Joe Biden has credited the work of his administration when it comes to aiding the nation’s supply chain crunch, during a meeting with supply chain execs

This comes as many shelves throughout America remain stocked over this busy holiday period, despite predictions gifts would be delayed in the mail.

Biden says his administration was very aware of supply chain problems leading into the holiday period and acted.

The president met with members of his supply chain task force, as well as executives from Fed-Ex, Yellow Corp and other delivery partners.

As part of its efforts to alleviate delays, the administration moved all major ports to a 24/7 operation.

Major retailers like Walmart, FedEx and UPS also agreed to round the clock operations.

Disney trumps DeSantis with legal loophole

Published

on

Disney has outplayed Ron DeSantis by leaning on a decades-old royal clause

In February, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis moved to take over Disney World’s governing body.

It was all in retaliation to the company’s public stance against the state’s “Don’t Say Gay” bill.

But now, new reports suggest this whole plan may have backfired.

Members of the new governor-appointed board argue the previous members stripped the board of its power before they left.

It was all part of an agreement, which was approved a day before DeSantis assumed more control of the land around Disney’s theme park.

Disney is leaning on a property law which essentially makes the company the government of the area.

New board member Ron Peri says the board has lost the majority of its ability to do anything beyond maintain the roads and basic infrastructure.

For just under six decades, Disney has operated its expansive theme park and resort in Florida under a specially designated district.

A board oversaw the area and had free reign of development processes.

Disney also had the authority to appoint district board members.

But this special status came under threat when Disney clashed with DeSantis and his “Don’t Say Gay” law.

Florida lawmakers the passed a bill in February to end Disney’s self-governing status and give the governor the authority to appoint new board members to the district.

DeSantis appointed five supervisors, including a parents’ rights activist and three Republican donors.

But the new supervisors say previous board members entered an agreement before they left their positions – effectively stripping them of any powers. #trending #featured
