that's gonna be so important because I know for a lot of consumers who are facing, deceptive practices, fraud, they're going sometimes to the CFPB.

And with that route now closed, we need to ensure then that people know that they can come to you for so many of these important consumer protection issues.
1:19:21
Perhaps partnering more with council member offices, but we can put information in our newsletters, working closely with the community boards to get that information out.
1:19:30
The people should know that you all are the frontline resource on all consumer protection issues.

Think would be incredibly value added.

We would deeply appreciate it.

And I think that's reflective of, like, my remarks response to council member Kaban.

Like, I think it's good to part I think we should all be working together as as a city government to get the word out to people on the street.
