Statement from Mayor Cavalier Johnson Regarding Brewers Stadium Maintenance Funding

“A great deal of hard work and thoughtful discussions have taken place to reach this juncture.  I want to thank the Governor, Speaker Vos, Minority Leader Neubauer, and so many others who have participated in this work.

“From the outset, I have stated two priorities:  I want the Brewers to be our home team for the indefinite future, and I want local taxpayers to be protected from excessive costs.

“The proposal shared today achieves those objectives, and it has my full support.”

    So Milwaukeeans are still stuck paying through both the city’s and the county’s share. No contributions from the WOW counties. How is this so great?
    I think we’re being screwed.

    I’m very disappointed in the local Dem pols who have caved to this blackmail. In any other world a half -billion dollar investment would get an equity share. We, the citizens pay and Attanasio rakes it in. I, foro e, will remember on Election Day.
