So We've now invested $260 million in almost 80 projects across the state to teach kids to swim, to invest in facilities, opening pools, especially in areas that never had a pool. And we have three of them on Long island, totaling $10 million. Tuesday announced a partnership with Department of Health, the YMCA and the state University of New York to offer free swimming lessons for every child in the state of New York up to the age of 12. That's how you start making giffets. That's how you start saving lives. So I'm not going to talk all day because I think these kids are going to want to get in the water. (34:13–34:24)
