A little bit of a different issue. The cell phone ban bill. Where do you stand on this measure as it approaches your office? Hey, I want to get it to my desk. I called on them to do it last year. I'm pleased to see some movement happening. I hope it gets to my desk. Got you anything else you'd like to add, Governor? No. Happy New Year. All right. Happy New Year. Thank you so much for Governor. (03:51–03:55)
