Very well spoken.

I am such a huge fan of Kevin.

I really am.

He's just a good, good friend.

And I remember, and we've had some, I mean, Kevin is actually probably one of my closest friends.

I have a lot of close friends amongst the governors, but Kevin's right up there.

And I remember when I told Kevin, I was like, you know, the president just disinvited me from the dinner.

He's like, what?

And he's like, for what?

I was like, I have no idea.

And I remember Kevin was the first one to say, well, let's be clear.

If one of us is not invited, it is no longer a National Government Association dinner.

And I was like, respect, Kevin.

Yeah, and honestly, that's the way the system is structured now, right?

Abuse is there, though.

Well, but abuse is one thing, right?

And abuse, if anyone is breaking the law, then of course you need to be accountable for being able to break the law.

But what we're talking about and the way the system is structured right now is that it's a joint responsibility between the federal government and our states to be able to provide supplemental nutrition for our kids.

And honestly, it's a better thing for all of us because I don't want my kids going to school hungry.

I don't want my kids now suffering from illnesses that are now gonna cost more money for them to have to go to emergency rooms and deal with.
