I don't have the numbers yet, but what I've seen, again, I probably define cuts differently. Cuts to me is actually reduction in spending from year to year. I don't think anybody's proposing any cuts. I don't believe anybody's proposing taking anybody off Medicaid. We're talking about capping enrollment at some point in time, at some point in time in the future, quite honestly. So I think there's been a lot of rhetoric, but let's get the information, let's get the numbers. (05:26–05:31)
