And so we spend a lot of our time working our way through the Cabinet nominations, and then after that, a lot of the other individual offices that also have to have Senate confirmation. So right now we're intervening, We're interspersing both attempts to get Cabinet members on board, along with attempts to repeal some of the regulations that the last administration did in the previous about six months of the administration. And they do that with what they call a Congressional Review Act. The reason why we're using it is that we've only got 60 working days in which to take advantage of this on what the previous administration did. (01:17–01:32)
