So that's what we talked about. And for a couple of years before I went in the state senate, I was championing and putting together a coalition externally on The working families tax credit, which, based on the EITC, but was actual dollars, up to $3,500 in people's pockets that have household incomes below $62,000 a year. And nothing we could get. One legislative hearing, couldn't really get it through. Had a supportive governor, but was not moving. Other important pieces, like our continuous attack on collective bargaining, the rights to organize wasn't moving anywhere. (06:12–06:26)
