So I'm interested in taking back a lot of this information that I'm getting today, plus we're gonna have another conversation.
1:29:01
Because I am gonna do a town hall in my district.
1:29:03
And this way we could bring in what I hope to be a couple of hundred people so they could actually hear what you have to offer again.
1:29:11
Knowledge is power.
1:29:12
People do not know to the extent of what how far you go unless you're sitting here on this panel.
1:29:18
If anybody's listening to this, on our NYC channel would be which would be great, but most are not.
1:29:26
So I keep bringing you to the community us taking our knowledge to our communities.
1:29:32
We're key in revving up small business through you.
1:29:37
So we are your best public advocates as elected officials.

So but my concern does lie a lot with the entrepreneurs.
1:29:45
And these kids, I don't wanna see them give up.
1:29:48
They're young people.
1:29:49
They got their whole future ahead of them, and they got some great ideas, but they have no money.
1:29:53
So I'd I'd like to dive more into how we go about doing that.
