Disney employees around the country have been staging daily protests this week.

And tomorrow they're planning a full day walk out.

They're protesting the way the company's CEO responded to a bill that recently passed

in Florida.

Florida State Senate passed the so-called Don't Say Gay Bill, which aims to ban the discussion

of sexuality and gender identity in schools.

Students, teachers are rising up in protest.

This is a peaceful demonstration to show the Florida legislature that what they are doing

does not represent us.

Disney has a massive presence in Florida.

There's Disney World, tens of thousands of employees, and the company enjoys tax breaks

from the state.

So, when the bill was introduced, people looked to Disney's CEO, Bob Chepek, to see how

he would respond.

At first, Chepek was silent, but after facing an avalanche of criticism from employees and

shareholders, he reversed course and decided to take a firm stand against the bill.

The whole thing ended up being a complete quagmire for Chepek and for the company in general.

That's our colleague Robbie Whelan, who covers Disney.

And he says this whole situation has come at a bad time for Chepek.

The company's stock is not doing well.

They don't have a very rich slate of movies coming out this year to rely on to generate

big profits.
