I told Bill Timmons this morning to include the whole leadership.
You see, these are for all the new members of the House and the Senate, Democrat and Republican, so we're asking the whole Republican leadership and the whole Democratic leadership.
So, I mean, you know, it's no command, but I thought it would be a nice way to honor, to sort of welcome them to Washington.
Friday morning is a working session, the first of our bipartisan things, this one on domestic policy primarily.
Good, good, good, good.
We'll have our committee structure ready on Monday after we've had another session.
Right.
Well, I wish you well, and I'll see you Friday morning, 8.30.
