Look, this is about a $1.8 billion settlement amount of money that was agreed to in a court case that basically is for people that were targeted unfairly by the Biden administration. And so it's difficult to argue against that. It's not without precedent. The Obama administration did something similar on the issue of race. But there is some things that need to be worked out, how that gets administered, who gets what. And so I completely understand the debate on that. We can have that debate. (02:21–02:26)
