Business Leaders, Conservatives Form Coalition to Support Brewer Ballpark Deal

A new coalition of business leaders and community groups, including a number of former conservative leaders in Wisconsin, are backing the proposal to use taxpayer dollars for repairs at American Family Field, as part of the strategy to keep the Brewers in Milwaukee. The group, which calls itself the Home Crew Coalition, on Wednesday threw its weight behind the ballpark funding deal. Omar Shaikh, the co-owner of Carnivore Steakhouse and the Third Street Market Hall in Milwaukee, is serving as the coalition’s chair. --- Listen to Other ATN Productions: America in Focus: A weekly feature of the top TheCenterSquare.com stories of the week out of Washington D.C. with commentary from The Center Square editors and more!
