It can be fixed. We need to let people know that so they can go out and get help when they need help. Thank you, Senator Tester. Mister Sheehy. Well, again, we have to reinvest in mental health infrastructure, and as Senator Tester said, de stigmatizing the issues. We can't make it a scarlet letter on someone if they have a mental health issue. We have to normalize their treatment and make sure they understand it's a sickness just like any other. So we have to reinvigorate our mental health treatment. Again, I've personally experienced that through myself as a veteran and many of my combat veterans as well, friends of mine. We have to reinvigorate our mental health infrastructure, and that's going to happen largely at the state level, but we can help with block grants and support from the federal level to ensure that happens. Thank you, Mister Sheehy. Our next and final question, we're very happy to be able to get the 15th question in. It comes from Jonathan Amberian and is for Senator Tester. (55:34–56:08)
