Oh, yeah. Right. Yeah. That's what we were known as. We were known as the gun shine state because we had the strongest NRA lobbyist here in Marion Hammer. She was the former NRA president. She's the one who wrote Stand Your Ground. She wrote that here in Florida and then it rolled out to every other red state across the nation.

You're talking A-plus rated members of the NRA, people who have as many weapons as they want to have decided after what they saw at Parkland to do something. It wasn't a complete democratic bill, but to do something to try to mitigate what was going on. We didn't ban possession. for 18 year olds. That was the big difference, right?

Because it was like, well, what about, you know, I wanna go hunting with my dad or my grandfather. You can, they can give you a gun. Possession isn't banned, it's the purchase. And that was, you know, how we compromised. Same thing with red flag laws. We gave you due process. So yes, if your weapons are taken away, you get an immediate hearing in front of a judge if it's done improperly, right?

That was a compromise. And so the lesson learned here that I've talked about to other people in red states is this was totally done by Republicans. They had control of all chambers. Rick Scott was the governor. He's now a U.S. senator. Rick Scott still supports the bill, not at the federal level, of course, but he says it's a state issue.

But every Republican who was involved with the bill didn't lose their reelection. Their political career wasn't over, right? The speaker became the secretary of education. Now it runs a college. The two people in line for Senate president, both became Senate president. One of them became the agricultural commissioner. I mean, you know, the governor became a U.S. senator.

It's never been an issue in any of his campaigns. And so this misnomer that you can you can't work on it because if you do, your political career will be over proved not to be true in Florida. There are no protests going on anywhere in the state right now that people's Second Amendment rights are infringed. And in fact, that law is still popular with the majority of Floridians.

And it's a 50-50 issue with Republicans here in Florida. And so... The point of talking about it is that it can be done. Now, if we talk about D.C., Jessica, it's a different story.

Right. Because I can't even get school safety legislation, which I have filed with Republicans. OK, bipartisan legislation. I can't even get a hearing on that stuff. Okay. And now we're talking about, you know, panic buttons, making school safer, you know, what kind of glass, what kind of doors do you use in schools, you know, hardening the facility, right? Can't even get a hearing on that stuff.
