We have 23 and a half million people. Our budget's less than New York City's budget. They obviously have very difficult time making things work now with how things have gone in recent years. New York State, 19 and a half million people. Compared to Florida, we have about 23 and a half million people, millions more than them. And our budget's less than half of the size of New York State's budget. So we've shown how it can be done in a way that's very fiscally responsible, conservative. But we are also trying to use the dollars in ways that are going to have maximum impact for you and your family. (05:35–05:50)
