BREAKING: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is hit with devastating news as dozens of massive, high-profile conventions pull-out of Florida over the “unfriendly political environment” that DeSantis created by attacking Black and LGBTQ+ residents. But it gets WAY worse for DeSantis… Experts and Florida tourism officials are “in a panic” because they say that this will devastate the Florida economy given the fact that these conventions bring hundreds of thousands of tourists to Florida each year — and now they will be taking their business elsewhere.
Even worse, experts are warning that Floridians “will lose their jobs” over DeSantis’ fascist policies scaring away tourists and large conventions. More than half a dozen planned large conventions in South Florida “have been scrapped in recent months,” and when asked for a reason why they were scrapping plans, one organizer wrote simply: “Governor DeSantis.” One massive convention that recently pulled out, the 2024 National Family and Community Engagement and Community Schools Conference, canceled “over 2,000 hotel rooms” that it had booked and announced, “We decided to pull out of Florida due to concerns about what the Governor is doing in the education/schools and that he will likely run in 2024.“
The American Specialty Toy Retailing Association had planned a 3,000-person conference in Florida, but is now instead headed to Milwaukee because of the “unfriendly political environment in Florida.” Another large convention that recently pulled out of Florida, the Supreme Council of America Ancient & Accepted Scottish Rite Masons, canceled over 855 hotel rooms it had booked and announced, “We lost this program due to the political climate.” If this is what DeSantis has done to Florida, just imagine what he would do to the United States economy if he becomes president
