And I want to say thank you, Mr. Chairman, Mr. Amadei, for including a provision in this bill that would honor a rider that we carried in our annual bill since 2019 that Prohibits reconciliation funds from being used to bypass those areas that were historically protected. That was SpaceX historical cemeteries, historical chapel and other things down in the Valley. And I really appreciate that, Mr. Chairman. (00:24–00:32)
