Love Field is mine. I got you. OK. And then you go all the way to the Southern Dallas County border. You can get from one end of my district to the other in about 30 minutes, which there's not a lot of members of Congress that can say that. So that means that my district is pretty compact.

That is for sure.

They are the ones that build pretty much all of our lifesaving helicopters, whether they are helicopters for firefighters and they're helping to fight wildfires or whether we're talking about the Coast Guard or whether we're talking about law enforcement.
