I used to live in Milwaukee, long ago, and I can attest that it’s a fine city full of lovely people. Although given the Democrats’ sensitivity to the events of 2016, it might very well change that to “Ignore Us at Your Peril.” The state hasn’t really been pressing the slogan thing since it tried to drop “America’s Dairyland” in 1985. The contest for a replacement stumbled when the screening committee rejected the people’s choice of “Eat Cheese or Die.”I really love the whole state slogan thing. The city likes to push its connection to the brewing industry — Perez celebrated the announcement with a toast of beer.
