Well, I think there needs to be an agreement with the federal government of exactly what the law is. And to your point, if it's not codified in there, that. But it seems like it would be, that If you cross the border and you enter our country illegally, you're not from here, you should be arrested and sent back to the country you came from. If it's not codified, then certainly I will fight to help make sure that it is. Is there anything else on your radar as you head up to Washington? (07:43–07:50)
