I think just going off of your responses to the legislation, obviously, I'm disappointed because it sounds like OTI is in opposition to every legislation that we wanted to discuss today, alleging that a lot of the benefits would be covered in the action plan, but we have yet to see significant action from the action plan.

I know the agency has been super excited.

That the progress report, you know, accomplished more than than you all set to accomplish as far as covering specifics specific principles and and so forth.

But the council has been working diligently to build trust with this administration, and we think that these specific bills create more transparency, more openness with the public.

So just curious specifically for intro 1024, I've reread the legislation.
0:18:37
I've read it again just now.
0:18:39
I'm I'm not certain that I understand where the assumption of a blanket approval process exists as you stated in your remarks.

I don't know if you wanna expand that?
