I don't know any. Even the lawn services in this area were working.

I would like to know. I don't want to support businesses who can't obey our laws.

Actually, I really didn't see many that were closed because I tried to shop a little in every place that was open and that I could find a reason to buy something - including a 35 gallon fill-up of my Suburban (ouch!).

I was wondering that myself. I know I will not buy Tyson foods anymore.

I didn't see a single business closed in Seattle. Although I work downtown, and everyone was getting out of the city early to avoid the protest march that blocked the biggest transit exit point out of the city, 2nd Ave.

I don't know about Texas, but here in Maryland, the two 7-11 parking lots I pass driving to work where the illegals hang out waiting to be hired were full. Some boycott!

Several McDonalds, Taco Cabana, some Taco Bells, several Jack in the Box, Jorge's and many family owned Mexican food restaurants were closed in the Austin area.

One local Taco restaurant owner (legal Hispanic lady) told her cooks, if they decided to join the protest, they wouldn't have to bother showing up for work today.

Nothing here in small town Ohio that I could see, but I've heard a lot of McDonald's were slowing down/understaffed nationwide. I've seen a lot of non-English speaking Hispanics at McDonald's. Good enough for me. I don't go there very often but I won't go again.

The only business in Midland, I heard about on the news, was Reagency Cleaners, he closed all three of his shops.

What-A-Burger fired two girls who went to work but wanted to leave early to go to the rally, he told them he needed them at work but if they left early they would no longer have jobs, they left then complained to a reporter how unfairly they were treated. What-A-Burger policy is you can have time off IF you make arrangements ahead of time.

My cousin runs a landscape business down in San Diego county. She hires legals, but they all took the day off 'to stand with their illegal brothers.' Be sure to not punish her. I think there's a lot more of this that happened.

In Minneapolis, a number of Hispanic-owned stores on E. Lake Street were closed.

In west St Paul (which is a heavily Hispanic area just south of downtown) many businesses were closed too.

I didn't eat fast food yesterday - so I can't tell you if the local McDonalds, etc. were short-staffed or not.

I'm thinking these protesters are mostly unemployed adults and school children to begin with, no body seems to have missed them.
