An article from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel puts names, faces and actions to the alienation that many republicans are feeling after years of anti-research policy from the current administration. For example, Jim Kress' foundation has given millions to stem cell research, but "after a lifetime of giving to Republican candidates and causes, Kress vows to give 'not another dime' to the GOP until it changes its tune."
