So I could go on and on, but In 2024 alone, ARC funded 583 projects that leverage $5 billion in private capital across the region. My amendment recognizes these things. And the amendment is paid for by cutting but not zeroing out. Not zeroing out. Pardon me, research dollars for solar panels. (03:26–03:37)
