yendiI'm heading to Milwaukee for a conference later this month.
I do not want to give a red cent to any business or person that supports Walker's war on equality.
I'm staying at the Hyatt Regency Milwaukee, and I don't have any control over that. But I have total control over how I spend my per diem on meals, as well as what cab/transportation company I use to get to and from the airport. Not to mention how I spend any personal money on things like bookstores.
Locals (or anyone familiar with the area), doing the "search nearby" option at the link above shows me a ton of restaurants. If you know of any that have fought against this bullshit (or have rowdily cheered Walker's actions), let me know. Ditto any other local companies.

The Shepherd Express has been MKE's alternative paper for a long time, and their forum might be a good place to ask this question

Enjoy your trip!
