It's the fight that I've been leading at the state legislature. I've also done a lot of work on prescription drugs. I'm a type 1 diabetic, and so I I use insulin every day. And When I first got diagnosed, I couldn't afford my own insulin. It cost me $684 for just a 30 day supply. And so I was able to pass a bill to cap the cost of insulin in Texas. Okay. Those are some of the things I've done. And we got a lot more work. (03:08–03:17)
