The new board governing the land that belongs to Disney World had decided to strip the workers of previously guaranteed perks.  Last month, the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District board revoked all of the land's firefighters' free passes to the Disney parks and resorts. First responders told the Miami Times this made visits to the theme park unaffordable. "The removal of this benefit takes away, for some, their entire reason for working here," a firefighter named Pete Simon told the Miami Times. The Disney firefighters' union actually once backed the new board, rebranded from the longstanding Reedy Creek Improvement District, but now opposes it because of this move.
