I just came home. Like I just wanted to focus on just being the best father I could be. You're working on those 10 years. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? I was just like building that. Fast forward, that same little girl that was born when I was incarcerated is fixing to turn 17 years old.
She's got one of the highest GPAs at her high school. She's a dual enrollment kid and is a junior going to college. Me and my wife have had full custody of her for eight years. This is her best friend. You know what I'm saying?

Yeah, yeah, we're working on, it's a double-sided sword. We were working on a bill to stop the flow and the demand, so it's trying to figure out the balance, but it was breaking my heart that the statistic I gave Jason was, and I don't know if you know this either, Sean, this will blow y'all's mind if you don't, but Over 160-something people in America die every single day to fentanyl overdoses.

160-something. To give you all the reference I used at the fentanyl hearing is, that is a 737 plane crashing full of human souls every single day. Wow. Now, if it was a plane that was crashing every single day, I don't predict this happens for four days before every airline in America shut down and there is a national crisis. It does something about it. Right.

If there was a hundred and something squirrels in Central Park dying a day, there would be pickets out there have saved the squirrels. Rightfully so. I'd be one of the picketers.
