We need to invest in Alaskans and support economic development. That's why I'm proud to have worked with both of our senators to secure more than $8.2 billion in infrastructure investments into our state, Bringing hundreds of millions in funding for rail belt energy grid and securing hundreds of millions of dollars in seafood purchases to support our most vulnerable. I oppose the 2014 and 2020 measures, and I would oppose similar measures to raise taxes, thanks to Michelle. Okay. Thank you. All right, we do have a little bit of time for some audience questions.
