But because the agency is so small, that seems that's the biggest problem that we're seeing.
1:46:17
They don't have the personnel.
1:46:18
They don't have the funding.
1:46:19
They don't, you know, They don't have much.
1:46:22
So we need to do but I I'd like to sit down especially about the VA, what where we should be focusing our efforts with the VA.
1:46:30
So we thank you so much for your testimony.
