We're seeing productivity in manufacturing surging.

So all of that's going the right direction.

And we're seeing things like GE has announced another $3 billion worth of investment, 1,000 jobs across five states, Georgia, Tennessee, et cetera.

So we're seeing it in the data, and we're seeing it in the actual expansion of manufacturing in America.

We have a lot of countries out there that for a long time have had 10 percent.

We have some that have higher at 15 percent.

And so our goal with all of this is to have continuity.

The reality is we want to maintain the policy we have, have as much continuity as possible, make sure that business understands this is the direction we've been going.

We're going to continue going this way.

And there's been a through line to President Trump, Biden and President Trump again, that we're going to have tariffs, we'll have tariffs on China, we'll protect U.S.

industry.

It's actually not as big a change as people might think that it is.

Things that people might think are ho-hum commodities, they actually become quite strategic when it comes to national security.

So whether it's lumber for housing or cars and the factories and the ecosystem that go along with them for transportation, these are the types of things we need to have a strong economy, have a strong industrial base to prepare us for times of war and other things.

These deals are going to be good deals.

We expect to stand by them.

We expect our partners to stand by them.

And I haven't heard anyone yet come to me and say, the deal's off.

They want to see how this plays out.

I'm in active conversation with them on it.
