Any comments you want to make on that and what you've seen be successful and where we may be falling behind and have more opportunities to do that better. So this is a conversation that comes up a lot in my district. There are lots of, for instance, land trusts throughout the fifth district and I, a huge effort around conservation and protecting open spaces, making sure that the rivers, the Farmington river, the Housatonic river, we are protecting the wild and scenic ecosystem. And oftentimes when I go into those areas, I kind of pivot the conversation to let them know that these things are equally as important to people who live in the cities. (54:45–55:05)
