Hello?
This is Dan Wallace.
Hello?
Hello?
The Secretary of the Treasury is just in my office and told me the good news that you were confirmed and unanimously.
Oh, Mr. President, thank you very much for calling me.
We're delighted that after your long waiting period that you are now the Treasurer of the United States of America, and we know that the position is in good hands, and particularly as a Californian, I just want to congratulate you to see that one of our folks made it.
Thank you very much, sir.
And I am very proud of it, and I will do my very best.
Have you heard from Secretary Connolly since you got confirmed?
Not yet, sir.
Well, he's sitting here.
I'll let him call you, too.
Here he is.
Very much, Mr. President.
Here he is.
Ms. Banuelos, congratulations to you.
Thank you very much.
I think that's wonderful.
Thank you very much.
We'll look forward to having you aboard over in the Treasury and look forward to working with you.
Thank you very much.
We couldn't be happier.
Thank you so much.
All right.
Thank you.
Bye-bye.
