I I've got some before I say something, I wanna go back to a a comment on VAB.
0:35:28
I and I gotta give VAB some a great good credit for this.

They ask us please put the hearing notifications in the news link.
0:35:35
Please make sure that stuff is available on social media.
0:35:37
And I feel like from the point when they ask that, we start to see for those attendees.
0:35:41
Maybe we start to see some sort of increase in attendance.
0:35:43
And so I've gotta give her VIP credit for that.
0:35:46
As far as something in real time, we can see as far as them making a suggestion, us taking it, and seeing some sort of action on.
0:35:51
I just wanna acknowledge that.

But to the other question, I think the the something the movement you're the most mister chair, we've got 50 to 60 are organizations that receive discretionary funding each year roughly.
