I have proposed creating an independent authority alongside H and H. So a billion dollars of federal funding, $4 billion budget, but the abortion and contraception and gender affirming care, only about $100 million. So We will create an independent authority that stands alongside H and H, that just uses city and state and private dollars. And then we can guarantee that we can keep providing abortions, that we can keep providing access to contraception, that we can keep providing gender affirming care while we keep the federal funds that we need to keep our health and hospital system strong.
