So how does that relate to school choice? Pardon me? What's your feeling about school choice in general or specific? Yeah, it's just overall, I would have never supported it. But we now, We've had [school choice] for, I think, almost 40 years here in Wisconsin. So I know it's not going to change anytime soon. And so my goal is to make sure that the public schools get as much resources and help from the state as possible. (51:54–52:00)
