The people on the ground and organizations on the ground took our legislation, created a ballot initiative, and It's called Money out of politics. And just last week, it got approved from the state board of canvassers. The ballot initiative that collected over 600,000 signatures is going to be on this year's November ballot, is going to pass with 80% of the vote, whether you're a Democrat, Republican, independent.
