Can you elaborate a little bit more. On the impact that you're hearing from the schools? Well, I haven't personally talked to the superintendents, but they're very much on alert because Schools in Portland and Lewiston in particular have a very fairly high number of children of immigrant families. And so we hear that some of those children just aren't going to school because they're concerned if they come home and their parent isn't there or the parent isn't there to take them to school in the first place.
