Diane has a question here. How do you feel about continuing the child care accounts funding? I'm a provider in Chalet, and those monies help run my family child care center. The federal government is ending the funding. It was one time, and they're leaving the state to hold the bag. So if you want to continue this program. Great. The feds have backed out and now they put providers in the spot saying state, you have to pick up the tab. (30:04–30:11)
