GOP Senator Josh Hawley is researching what can be done with copyright licensing of “Woke” companies like Disney, or, what we would call Woketarian, a very specific version of social justice the corporations have adopted. Disney’s Mouse is in the crosshairs of this de facto civil war.

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) said he plans to file legislation this week targeting the copyright protections of Disney and “woke corporations.”
Hawley made the announcement in a Monday afternoon tweet, although he didn’t provide details about what the legislation would entail. Other Republican lawmakers have previously suggested that they might try to use an expiring copyright on Mickey Mouse to punish Disney for its opposition to a controversial Florida education bill.
“For years, @Disney has gotten special copyright protections from the federal government — allowing them to charge consumers more. Woke corporations shouldn’t get sweetheart deals. I’ll introduce legislation this week to end their special protections — enough is enough,” the senator wrote.
