No one has more social capital than veterans on both sides of the aisle. So I just don't believe that that's a fair statement to say, we're done. We're done for another generation. Truth be told, It took us about 18 months to get the pact act passed, from conceiving of it to getting it through committee, to getting it through the House and Senate, to all the activism and everything. 18 months is not by Washington standards, it's not horrible. Right. It was because the Agent Orange generation went through almost 30 years. Right. (21:42–21:54)
