I don’t know about you, but I’ve never visited a state because of its official state symbols. But that’s the rationale behind a new bill that would make Budweiser the official state beer:
Budweiser is a Missouri-based international icon that — if officially recognized — might even persuade more people to visit the state, said Rep. Curt Dougherty.
It’s clear that the purpose of this bill is to help out a particular company. (Perhaps in hopes of future campaign contributions?) Or maybe Rep. Dougherty just wants to help Budweiser learn about the political process!
