Now, I want to talk about CDBG you mentioned in your opening statement. Well, it's zeroed out. You mentioned fraud and ineffectiveness.

And I think it's interesting here it says this program was created in your comments to revitalize urban communities. I don't think I have one urban community. (03:05–03:10)
