Because this is a very important election where people are seeing their everyday lives, from the price of gas to health care is on the line.

Really interesting stuff. Appreciate you coming by today. Thank you so much, Mr. Secretary. Thanks for having me. All right, come back soon. All right. (14:52–15:06)
