Look, I think we should be demanding those things.
But I also think that you've got to have some strategy about getting to the end of a shutdown.
And so getting real results so that you can get to the end of a shutdown.
And I believe strongly that what you just described is something that I've talked about with some senators and congressmen before the shutdown took place.
You know, what should the strategy be?
What should you be going after?
Yeah.
I again, I think we should be fighting for, as you just said, like both sides of that.
Right.
Health care.
And I guess I'll just probably say democracy.
Yeah.
But I do think that it's very difficult to get actual guarantees from a federal administration, especially one that's being given carte blanche by the Supreme Court.
And, you know, as if they have ultimate executive power with democracy.
very few limitations, it's hard to get any agreement from them that will hold.
But what you can do is get a piece of legislation that says, you know, we're going to give people or preserve people's health care and make sure that they're not dying because they don't have health care coverage or that their premiums will be doubled.
So I...
I think there's a limit to what you can demand, because otherwise, why not just put everything on the table and say we're not opening up the government until we get all of these things?
So I think, you know, again, I am not suggesting that we shouldn't be very, very vocal and fight very hard to make sure that we're limiting what ICE and CBP are doing.
but I think there's just a limit to what can be done by Congress right now.
