And I'm so sad that I had to miss you all last week.

Oh, Jasmine, you've been busy. I feel like you should start with like, tell us what you've been up to.

Man. So on Monday, which is when we normally record, we also had crossover day at the Georgia State Capitol.

very, very long day. Lots of bills. And actually, it's pretty on target for what we're talking
