Theme parks to furlough undisclosed number of employees following Gov. Newsom refusing to allow reopenings.
On Monday, a memo released by Disneyland President Ken Potrock announced a second round of layoffs following the state’s continued refusal to allow theme parks in California to reopen.
Theme parks have been continuously denied approval to reopen under COVID-19 health guidelines since the summer, causing a massive layoff of 28,000 employees in California and Florida in late September. The state continued to refuse to release reopening guidelines until the middle of October, causing a number of protests to erupt in Southern California throughout the first half of the month.
While guidelines were eventually released in late October, they were tied directly to where the county the park was in on the state COVID-19 reopening color tier, keeping many closed due to most counties being in the purple and red tiers. Governor Gavin Newsom only reiterated his stance on keeping parks in high COVID-19 rate counties closed at the end of October, causing many parks, including Disney parks, to contemplate more layoffs of employees.
Governor Newsom’s hard stance on re-openings directly led to Disney’s decision on Monday.

I’m normally sad to see anyone lose a job, but considering some of the garbage that Disney peddles to kids, I’m not so sad in this case.
Disney goes way beyond kids. They own a large % of American media.
Yeah, I know. Disney=ABC.
Yeah, I'll bet Newsome is really worried about getting re-elected in CA. The people who are really motivated to end his reign of error left, the rest like to gripe but will mostly pull the lever for (D) no matter what the name next to it is.
The only thing keeping them afloat is Disney online streaming.
I bet they all still voted for Bidet.
Orlando furloughed a bunch of workers which I think is unfair due to the fact Florida is opened! I think headquarters is punishing Florida.
Trump is losing by almost five million votes in California with about 90% of the vote counted. Yeah, Newsom has nothing to worry about. The Democrats totally control the state!
90% plus of Disney Ownership, Management and EMPLOYEE’S are Proud Liberal Progressive DEMONRATS!!
SUCK IT UP, YOU VOTED FOR THIS!!
I’m happy over that.
"Look at all the f___s I give!"
Will they lay off any Copyright Lawyers?
Surprised Mickey hasn’t walked out on such an evil company.
They will STILL vote for the democrats who have cost the company billions!
