Yeah, well, it's certainly not a cakewalk. It's had its challenges. But I'll tell you, after we got through the first week and got into session, it was a pretty challenging session, too. We had a huge class, probably the biggest class of freshmen in the history of the state. especially legislators have never had any kind of political experience, or a lot of them didn't even know what the legislative process looked like. We had our challenges, but we got through it. (12:31–12:37)
